This section brings together a range of tourism data releases that show how tourism contributes to New Zealand’s economy. It links key Stats NZ and MBIE datasets including those on tourism expenditure, employment, and international travel.
Stats NZ publishes International Travel statistics which are used in the calculation of the International Visitor Survey (IVS).To meet IVS deadlines, Stats NZ supplied early provisional unpublished data, before data processing was complete, to MBIE for the December 2018 month. MBIE have now obtained the final data published by Stats NZ and have revised the IVS spend figures for the year ended December 2018 and the year ended March 2019.
We investigated the Regional Tourism Indicators data to determine the validity of using it to help answer questions about tourism expenditure at a regional level.
The Business Events Activity Survey monitored and benchmarked the performance of more than 300 professional conferencing and meeting venues in New Zealand from 2009 to 2019.
This pivot table provides estimates of both domestic and international tourism expenditure in million dollars and is part of the Regional Tourism Estimates.
Domestic Travel Survey results from the year to September 2009 formed the beginning of a new data series, which used an improved methodology and provided more accurate data.
