Abstract: The Covid-19 pandemic has severely disrupted international tourism. As foreign traveller surveys are no longer conducted, the Banque de France has brought into play innovative information sources, such as payment card data, to assess the scale of the shock. After a massive drop in receipts since March, European visitors returned to France during the two summer months.

La pandémie de Covid-19 a fortement ébranlé le tourisme international. Avec l’arrêt des enquêtes auprès des voyageurs étrangers, la Banque de France a mobilisé des sources innovantes, telles que les données de cartes de paiement, afin d’estimer l’ampleur du choc. Après une chute massive des recettes depuis mars, les deux mois d’été sont marqués par un retour des visiteurs européens.
