"Dream - The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) recorded the number of foreign tourist visits to Indonesia, from January to December 2023, reaching 11.68 million visits."
"Increased by 98.3 percent compared to the same period in 2022," said Acting Head of BPS Amalia A. Widyasanti, quoted from Liputan6.com."
"According to Amalia, the number has surpassed the total number of foreign tourist visits in 2022, which only reached 5.89 million visits."
The achievement of foreign tourist visits last year also exceeded the target set by the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy (Kemenparekraf) at the beginning of 2023, which was 7.4 million, and surpassed the target that was later revised in mid-2023, which was 8.5 million visits.
"Compared to our target, it is almost more than double the lower limit target, 40 percent above the upper limit target," said the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy Sandiaga Uno, quoted from Liputan6.com."
Five Countries with the Most Visits to Indonesia
The Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy also presented five countries that dominate visits to Indonesia, namely Malaysia, Australia, Singapore, China, and Timor Leste. Meanwhile, the average length of foreign tourist visits is between 7 to 12 nights, with the highest number in April 2023, which is an average of 12.4 nights.
"Meanwhile, the hotel occupancy rate was recorded at 59.74 percent or almost 60 percent across Indonesia."
"Due to the dominance of these five countries, Sandi expressed appreciation and revealed the desire to visit several friendly countries to stimulate an increase in foreign tourist visits in 2024."
