According to several surveys conducted among inbound travelers to Taiwan in 2020 and 2021, the amount of tourists' average daily expenditure decreased significantly in the second half of 2020 compared to the first quarter of the year, i.e. pre-pandemic, and grew only slightly in 2021. Between January and March 2020, tourists in Taiwan spent on average 152 U.S. dollars per day, 62 U.S. dollars of which covered their hotel bills. During the COVID-19 pandemic, tourists came to Taiwan after the easing of border controls in July 2020, however, their daily expenditure dropped to only 86 U.S. dollars on average. Hotel bills accounted for more than half of the daily spending at that time and remained nearly the same in 2021.
