Indicator Summary

The ranking of nations from which the greatest number of foreign visitors arrive in India in a given year is known as the “top 10 Countries as per Foreign Tourist Arrivals” (FTAs). The Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, compiles this list using official immigration data gathered at land checkpoints, seaports, and airports. It is essential for tourism planning, policy-making, and marketing strategies to determine the top ten source countries for foreign visitor arrivals. It assists India’s tourism agencies and companies in concentrating on important markets, creating focused advertising campaigns, and enhancing services to meet the needs of tourists from these countries. Additionally, tourism from these nations makes a substantial contribution to local economies, employment creation, and foreign exchange profits, particularly in the transportation, hospitality, and cultural sectors. Monitoring changes in the nations of origin also takes into account shifting patterns of global mobility, geopolitical factors, and the competitiveness of India’s travel industry. India’s appeal to tourists worldwide is increased and sustained economic growth is supported by fortifying relations with these leading markets.
