Household Survey on Domestic Visitors
The Household Survey on Domestic Visitors (HSDV) is a nationwide collection of data on domestic and outbound tourism gathered from Filipino households, specifically on the profile and socio-economic characteristics of domestic travelers, and the details of their travels within (inside) and outside (of) the country. It is a collaborative undertaking of the Philippines Statistics Authority (PSA) and the Department of Tourism (DOT) to provide comprehensive information for policy-making and development purposes on domestic tourism. Statistics generated from the HSDV serve as inputs to the Philippine Tourism Satellite Account (PTSA) and Philippine national account, are also used in the preparation and monitoring of the implementation of the National Tourism Development Plan, among others.
