Abstract: The tourism market research can be oriented on its two main components, i.e. tourism demandand supply. It is well-known that the tourism market is complex and dynamic and a large number offactors (of different nature) act on its components. Most research conducted in this field has aquantitative nature and expresses the size and structure of the tourism market. This study includes a quantitative research on tourism demand, by processing the informationon the tourist expenditures incurred during the domestic trips taken by the tourists from the EUcountries in 2016. The combination of the working methods (the CFA statistical method and the SPSS statisticalsoftware) allowed us to perform a comparative analysis between countries regarding the size andstructure of expenditures. Moreover, it enabled us to shape the profile of each expenditurecategory, as presented in the European statistics. The research results do not include issues relatedto the reasons behind these expenditures.
