"4.5 billion euros from tourism in 2024" - Kasa: The real tourist spent more money than in 2023
This figure made public by Prime Minister Rama shows that tourism contributed about 400 million euros more to the state coffers compared to 2023.
However, according to data from the Institute of Statistics, an average tourist spent 21 euros less than a year ago, when tourism revenues were 4.1 billion euros.
According to the data, this is because the increase in the inflows of foreign citizens was not in direct proportion to their expenditures.
The number of foreign nationals entering the country increased by 15%, while income increased by 8%.
Despite rising prices, especially in the south of the country, foreign interest in Albania remained high.
According to some unofficial estimates, tourism revenues for the current year could reach 5 billion euros.
