UNWTO, 9 July 2008 Methodological Note on UNWTO’s Estimates on Worldwide Tourism Volumes In the world and (sub)regional aggregates, estimates are included for countries and territories with data still missing based upon data available for a part of the year or the general trend for the region. In particular for the Middle East and Africa, the regional and subregional aggregates should be treated with caution as estimations are based on a relatively small number of countries and territories that supplied data for the entire year. UNWTO tourism statistics generally refer to figures for a country as a whole. In the collection of statistics, however, except for independent states, there are also a number of dependencies or territories of special sovereignty included (for instance Hong Kong, China, or French Polynesia, France). These territories report tourism figures independently and are for the sake of tourism statistics considered as an entity in itself. Because of this, where reference is made to ‘countries’, the term generally should be taken to mean ‘countries and territories’. In a few other cases, dependencies are not separately listed but included in the total for the country they depend upon (for instance Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man in United Kingdom). In general, UNWTO does not collect data on the level of regions, states, provinces or specific destinations within a country. Most countries will have a further regional breakdown available as well as other series not included in the UNWTO database on World Tourism Statistics. Please refer to national sources for these data. The regional country groupings are according to the UNWTO regional commissions. See www.unwto. org/facts/eng/methodological.htm for the countries and territories included in the various regions and subregions. The World Tourism Organization is aware of the limitations of the available statistical information on tourism. Despite the considerable progress made in recent decades, international tourism statistics are often not uniform, because definitions and methods of data collection tend to differ. Every user of this information should bear in mind that the international comparability of statistical data is still not optimal. 185
