Residents of Russia came back after the pandemic, not after the invasion, while all non-resident arrivals kept their usual February-to-March rise (+9.1%). From October to February, 48,061 a month arrived in 2021-22, about double the pre-pandemic level (another method); in 2025-26, 299.

Notes

  • The Tourism Ministry compiles the e-ticket form. The rise starts in August 2021 (6,818; 531 in July), a month before; how much reflects the method cannot be separated. October to February: 22,845 a month in 2018-19 and 24,520 in 2019-20. February 2022 includes days of war.
  • By nationality the February-to-March 2022 fall is 92.8%. In 2025, 22,948 Russians and 3,067 residents of Russia arrived: most reported living elsewhere. Ukrainians, by nationality, numbered 37,429 in 2025: more than in 2019 (29,769, under another method), fewer than in 2021 (85,912).
  • In February 2022 Russia supplied 42,704 of 566,235 arrivals; almost without it, 2025 (8.86 million) was the largest full year of a series that starts in 2015. These data do not explain why arrivals from Russia fell; they show the timing and scale.
