Brazil has achieved a historic milestone, welcoming 7.09 million international tourists between January and September 2025, the highest number ever recorded in a single year. This is reported by Brasil247, a partner of TV BRICS. The figure represents a 45% increase compared with the same period in 2024 and surpasses the annual record of 6.77 million foreign visitors registered last year.
The result also exceeds by 2.9% the 2025 target set in the National Tourism Plan (2024 – 2027), which aimed for 6.9 million international arrivals. September stood out as the best month in the country’s tourism history for this period, with 570,934 foreign visitors, up 28.2% from September 2024.
According to the federal government, this growth reflects Brazil’s consolidation as a global destination known for diversity and hospitality, with a direct impact on employment generation, income, and local development. Among source markets, Argentina remains the top contributor, sending over 2.7 million visitors between January and September.
