Source markets: where Spain's visitors come from

Two different surveys sit behind this section. FRONTUR counts tourists only, excluding same-day visitors and transit; EGATUR surveys arrivals whether or not they stayed overnight. Five of the fourteen lines are publisher aggregates, not countries, and annual spending is published for three markets out of fourteen. Dividing one survey by the other gives an estimate, and it is flagged as one.

Arrivals: INE, FRONTUR, year 2025, provisional. Spending: INE, EGATUR, year 2025. These are DIFFERENT surveys: FRONTUR counts tourists only, EGATUR surveys arrivals whether or not they stayed overnight.

The totals come from the publisher as separate figures, not as the sum of the series: 96,770,515 tourists and €134,712 m of spending in 2025. The series sums to one tourist more than the total — the publisher's rounding.
