Defined for statistical purposes as ‘consumption expenditures’, ie., payments for goods and services, made by residents of a country visiting abroad. They should, in practice also include expenditures of excursionists, except where these are so important a sto justify separate classification. They should, however, exclude all forms of remunerations resulting from employment as well as international fare payments. This category corresponds to “Travel Debits” in the standard reporting form of the International Monetary Fund (IMF)’ (World Tourism Organization).
