* “Overseas” excludes Canada and Mexico; Forecasted figures for 2017 to 2022.
For 2015 data, annual arrivals forecasts include a technical data-processing change that increases the 1+ night visitor counts compared to previous forecasts. The 2015 country volumes and change metrics, therefore, may not be comparable to data for 2014 and the years prior to 2014.
Figures have been rounded. Figures for 2002 to 2015 come from an earlier release.
