Tarptautinės ekonominės integracijos ir globalizacijos aplinkoje tarptautinis turizmas yra viena svarbiausių ūkinės veiklos sričių, kuri ne tik skatina regionų bendradarbiavimą ir tarptautinius mainus, bet ir prisideda prie vidaus ekonominių problemų sprendimo. Vertinant turizmo poveikį šalies ekonominiam augimui, dažniausiai analizuojama: atvykstamojo turizmo sukuriamų grynojo eksporto pajamų dalis, atvykstamojo turizmo sukurtų darbo vietų skaičius ir turizmo įtaka ekonominiam augimui.
