Overview
Niger's tourism receipts stood at $130.0M in 2019, a rise of +$16.0M from 2018. Niger ranked 130th globally.
Niger’s tourism receipts rose from 25,600,000.38 in 1996 to an all‑time peak of 130,000,000.00 in 2019, placing the country 130th globally and surpassing the 20,200,000.76 trough recorded in 2002. Over the 24‑year span, the sector expanded by more than fivefold, reflecting gradual improvements in infrastructure, security initiatives and regional marketing that have attracted more visitors despite the nation’s landlocked geography. The 2019 figure remains modest compared with peers such as Algeria, whose receipts reached 140,000,000.00, and Bhutan, which posted 120,000,000.00, underscoring the limited scale of Niger’s tourism economy relative to other developing markets. Continued investment in transport links, cultural heritage sites and cross‑border tourism corridors could sustain the upward trajectory, while any resurgence of security concerns or global travel disruptions would likely reverse the recent gains.
