Yearly data from 1995 to 2020, from the World Bank.
Fiji's international tourism, expenditures (current US$) was US$77 million in 2020, the latest year in the World Bank's World Development Indicators. That is down 24.51% from US$102 million in 2010 (2.77% a year on average, compounded).
| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | US$77 million | 2020 |
| Five years earlier | US$115 million | 2015 |
| Ten years earlier | US$102 million | 2010 |
| Highest | US$174 million | 2019 |
| Lowest | US$67 million | 1998 |
| Average since 2011 | US$121.3 million | 2011–2020 |
| First recorded | US$82 million | 1995 |
Over five years it is down 33.04% from US$115 million in 2015 (7.71% a year on average, compounded). Since 1995 it is down 6.1% from US$82 million in 1995 (0.25% a year on average, compounded).
In 2020, Fiji's international tourism, expenditures (current US$) fell 55.7% on 2019 (from US$174 million to US$77 million).
Across the 24 yearly changes before that (1996 to 2019), the average change was +4% and a typical year strayed about 13.2% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 4.5 standard deviations below that average, so it was unusually large compared with the rest of the record.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 34.1% in 2004 and the biggest yearly fall was 55.7% in 2020. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2011 to 2020 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 10% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2020, Fiji had the 110th highest value of the 129 economies reporting that year. Higher is not always better: for some indicators the lowest value is the one to aim for. See the full ranking.
| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Fiji | US$77 million | 2020 |
| World | US$1.44 trillion | 2019 |
International tourism expenditures are expenditures of international outbound visitors in other countries, including payments to foreign carriers for international transport. These expenditures may include those by residents traveling abroad as same-day visitors, except in cases where these are important enough to justify separate classification. For some countries they do not include expenditures for passenger transport items. Data are in current U.S. dollars.
Limitations: Tourism can be either domestic or international. The data refers to international tourism, where the traveler's country of residence differs from the visiting country. International tourism consists of inbound (arrival) and outbound (departures) tourism. The data are from the World Tourism Organization (WTO), a United Nations agency. The data on inbound and outbound tourists refer to the number of arrivals and departures, not to the number of people traveling. Expenditure associated with the activity of international visitors has been traditionally identified with the travel item of the Balance of Payments (BOP).
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a gap-filled total.
