The Philippines News Agency quoted Tourism Secretary Christina Frasco saying: \u201cAs we look ahead to 2024, our commitment to the transformation of Philippine tourism is unwavering. Guided by our National Tourism Development Plan 2023-2028, we are poised for a thriving tourism landscape, evident in surpassing our targets in international and domestic arrivals and receipts, fostering economic prosperity and further job creation for our people\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n

Earlier, the DOT confirmed the country welcomed 5,450,557 international visitors in 2023, surpassing the 4.8 million target set by the Philippines’ Department of Tourism (DOT) for the entire year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DOT report confirmed that 91.80% or 5,003,475 visitors were foreigners, while the remaining 447,082 were overseas Filipinos visiting the homeland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During 2023, the country generated an estimated PHP482.54 billion in international tourism revenue, more than double the receipts it recorded in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than a quarter (1,439,336 visitors) came from South Korea, the traditional top source market for international visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The US followed with 903,299 tourists (16.57%). Japan supplied 305,580 (5.61%), Australia supplied 266,551 (4.89%), and China supplied 263,836 (4.84%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frasco said the 2023 visitor receipts also show that the tourism industry is \u201crecovering faster than expected.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The country’s 2023 international tourism receipts grew by 124.87% compared with the PHP214.58 billion estimated visitor receipts from 2022. Before the pandemic in 2019, the DOT recorded PHP482.15 billion in international tourism receipts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
