2026.05.2208:00:00UTC+00Turkey’s Foreign Arrivals Slump 9.44% in April, Reversing March Growth

Turkey saw a sharp downturn in foreign arrivals in April 2026, with the indicator dropping 9.44% year-over-year, according to data updated on 22 May 2026. The decline marks a notable reversal from March 2026, when foreign arrivals had still been growing at a 5.00% annual rate.

The figures are based on year-over-year comparisons, with the current reading reflecting the change in April 2026 relative to April 2025, and the previous reading measuring March 2026 against March 2025. The swing from positive to negative growth suggests a significant cooling in inbound tourism and travel demand within a single month, raising concerns over the momentum of Turkey’s foreign visitor inflows as the key summer season approaches.
