Tourist GDP grew by 0.8% in the third quarter of 2025: Inegi
The tourist GDP in Mexico experienced a 0.8% annual growth in the third quarter of 2025, marking a consecutive positive trend in the sector according to Inegi data.
According to the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (Inegi), Mexico's tourist GDP grew by 0.8% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in the previous year. This growth follows a 0.7% increase in the second quarter of 2025, suggesting a positive recovery trend for the tourism sector after a previous decline. The only downturn occurred in the first quarter of 2025, which saw a 1.2% decrease, indicating that the sector is moving toward recovery after a challenging period.
The report reveals that within the tourist GDP, goods in the sector recorded an annual increase of 1.7%, while services grew by 0.5%. This distinction between goods and services highlights the varying dynamics within the tourism industry, with goods seeing a notably stronger performance. The growth in these segments reflects a resurgence in travel and leisure activities, which has significant implications for the overall economy, especially as tourism plays a vital role in generating employment and revenue in Mexico.
As the report underscores the steady growth in the sector, it signals optimism for stakeholders in the tourism industry, including businesses reliant on domestic and international travelers. Such growth is crucial for economic stability and recovery, providing a pathway for further investments and improvements in tourism infrastructure and services. The continuous monitoring of tourism metrics will likely remain a priority for policymakers aiming to sustain the positive momentum in the years to come.
