This paper provides guidance on measuring the economic impact of tourism in Malta through the compilation of Tourism Satellite Account (TSA) Tables 1-7 and presents an action plan to strengthen tourism statistics. The TSA is an internationally recognised framework used to measure tourism's direct economic contribution within a country. It integrates tourism-specific data into the broader system of National Accounts, ensuring consistency and comparability with other economic statistics. This standardised approach helps policy makers, researchers, and industry stakeholders better understand tourism's contribution to the economy.
