The central thia-zolidine ring of the title salt, C16H16N3S+·Br-, adopts an envelope conformation, with the C atom bearing the phenyl ring as the flap atom. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked by N-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, forming chains parallel to the b-axis direction. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots indicate that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (46.4%), C⋯H/H⋯C (18.6%) and H⋯Br/Br⋯H (17.5%) inter-actions.
