Methodological note
The main objective of the Tourist Expenditure Survey (EGATUR) is to obtain monthly information on the tourist expenditure made by non-residents in Spain in their trips to our country. In preparing it, the international definitions and recommendations of the UN Tourism and EUROSTAT in this field are followed.
- Type of operation:
- continuous monthly statistics.
- Population scope:
- this refers to non-residents in Spain who enter our country, whether or not they have stayed overnight, as well as those who pass through our country in transit.
- Geographical scope:
- the entire national territory. The sample is collected at the main access points for non-resident travelers (road, airport, port and rail).
- Reference period of the results:
- the month.
- Sample size:
- The theoretical annual sample size of EGATUR exceeds 127,000 surveys, which are distributed throughout the year according to the seasonality of the flow of passengers and to the sample design, which is defined for each access road independently, setting a fraction of the sub-sampling from the FRONTUR sample.
- Type of sampling:
- Single stage, where the estimates of the FRONTUR survey are used as the target population to which the EGATUR data are elevated.
- Collection method:
- the information is collected by direct interviews when the traveller leaves Spain, using a multilingual electronic questionnaire. It is important to note that the survey is administered to the visitors when they are leaving the country, so the information collected could refer to a longer period than the reference month.

INE statistics are produced in accordance with the Code of Good Practice for European Statistics. More information in Quality at INE and the Code of Best Practices.
