Abstract

Tourism, as one of the leading service industries, has a significant contribution to the development of many national economies and thus to the world economy as well. Global tourist travels have a constant growth that implies a significant positive developmental impact on certain tourist regions. These global tendencies consider Europe and its all sub-regions, the most important tourist region in the world. However, the Republic of Macedonia, as a part of the European continent, does not continuously follow these global and regional tourism trends. The constant growth of tourist arrivals was interrupted by a sudden and destabilizing drop in the period of 1989-2018, despite the trend of persistent growth of tourist arrivals in southern Europe. This research aims to quantify the impact of declining tourist arrivals on tourism services export and its effect on Macedonian GDP. The reasons for declining of the tourist arrivals in the analyzed period will not be discussed in this research.
