Average expenditure per night by expenditure categories (from 2012 onwards)

This collection covers national tourism.  Data is collected by the competent national authorities of the Member States and is compiled according to a harmonised methodology established by EU regulations before transmission to Eurostat. Most of the time, data on domestic and outbound trips (where "outbound tourism" means residents of a country travelling in another country) is collected via sample surveys. However, in a few cases the data are compiled from border surveys. Surveys are generally conducted on a monthly or quarterly basis.   The concepts and definitions used in the collection of data shall conform to the specifications described in the Methodological manual for tourism statistics. With the entry into force of the Regulation (EU) 692/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Member States are transmitting microdata to Eurostat, which enables that data to be disseminated far more widely (since reference period 2012). The information on tourism demand concerns trips (for the population aged 15 years and over) of which the main purpose is holidays or business and which involve at least one or more consecutive nights spent away from the usual place of residence (See annex at the bottom of the page). Aggregated data on participation in tourim is also transmitted to Eurostat and covers the resident population aged 15 or over, participating in tourism for personal purpose during the reference year. Microdata on trips of EU residents as well as participation data are transmitted to Eurostat one time per year. Data are disseminated when they respect agreed validation rules and other quality criteria.

本数据集涵盖全国性旅游统计范畴。数据由各成员国国家主管部门采集，并依照欧盟法规确立的统一方法完成编制，随后报送至欧盟统计局（Eurostat）。多数情况下，国内旅行与出境旅游（outbound tourism）的数据通过抽样调查采集，其中"出境旅游"指一国居民前往他国境内开展的旅行活动；少数情形下，数据则通过边境调查编制。调查通常按月度或季度周期开展。数据采集所采用的概念与定义，需符合《旅游统计方法手册》（Methodological manual for tourism statistics）中载明的规范要求。随着《欧洲议会与欧盟理事会（EU）第692/2011号条例》正式生效，各成员国开始向欧盟统计局报送微观数据，自2012年参考期起，相关数据的传播范围得以大幅拓宽。旅游需求相关信息涵盖年龄15岁及以上人群的旅行活动，此类旅行的主要目的为度假或商务，且需至少在常住地之外连续住宿一晚或多晚（详见页面底部附件）。旅游参与度汇总数据同样报送至欧盟统计局，其覆盖范围为参考年度内年满15岁、出于个人目的参与旅游活动的常住居民。欧盟居民旅行相关的微观数据及旅游参与度数据均按年度报送至欧盟统计局。仅当数据符合既定验证规则与其他质量标准后，方可对外发布。
