According to data from Indonesia’s Central Statistics Agency (BPS), the figures  marking a 20.17% increase compared to the same period in 2023. This achievement sets a new record for Indonesia’s tourism sector over the past five years.

In 2020, international arrivals plummeted to just 3.8 million due to the pandemic, followed by a low of 1.3 million in 2021. However, the country rebounded with 5.9 million visitors in 2022, nearly doubling to 10.5 million in 2023, and achieving 12.66 million in 2024.
