Current statistics show that tourism in Austria plays an important role in the national economy, particularly in terms of income, employment and regional development. The Statistics Austria emphasizes that free overnight stays, for example with friends and relatives, are not included in the official results. However, these account for around a quarter of the total overnight stays.
The Federal Ministry of Labor and Economics notes that Austria registered up to 46.2 million guests and 152.7 million overnight stays in 2019. After an almost complete standstill in tourism during the COVID-19 pandemic, the sector recovered significantly from 2022 and remains robust in 2023. The figures for last year show the first year without COVID-19 restrictions with 45.2 million guests and 151.2 million overnight stays.
