Inbound tourist visits to the UK Q1 2015-Q3 2021

Published by Statista Research Department, Feb 9, 2022
The number of inbound visits to the United Kingdom declined sharply in 2020 and 2021 over the previous years due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. In the third quarter of 2021, visits by international tourists in the UK reached 1.3 million, rising substantially over the previous quarter but remaining way below pre-pandemic levels. However, figures for 2021 only refer to air passengers since it was not possible to conduct passenger surveys at different locations (for instance, UK seaports, Eurostar trains, and the Eurotunnel) between January and September 2021.

Supplementary notes

*The source specifies that the International Passenger Survey (IPS) was suspended on March 16, 2020 due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Thus, 2020 figures are based on administrative sources and modeling, except for Q1 2020 data that is based on the IPS. Please find here additional information related to the methodology.

**Data for 2021 only refer to air passengers and cannot be compared with historical UK total figures. The source specifies that the "sample for this period is very low so extreme caution should be used when interpreting results".
