Market Trends
Inbound tourism to Japan is steadily recovering, with particular momentum in the high-value segment. According to the Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO), demand for experiential and culturally immersive travel is rising, reinforcing the shift away from conventional sightseeing toward value-added tourism models.
In 2019, Japan welcomed 31.88 million international visitors, generating ¥4.8 trillion in tourism expenditure. By 2025, visitor numbers are projected to reach 42.68 million, with total spending expected to expand to ¥9.5 trillion. The luxury and high-value inbound segment is emerging as a central growth driver within Japan’s broader tourism economy. Average per-night spending is forecast to increase from ¥41,500 in 2019 to ¥53,600 in 2025, reflecting structural growth in premium travel demand.
