Description

Definition
The definitions of terms used for the purpose of this survey are those recommended by the World Tourism Organisation with minor modifications.

Thus, the term 'Visitor' means a Ugandan who is a resident abroad or a resident of a foreign country (irrespective of his nationality) visiting Uganda for non-immigrant and non-employment purposes.

The term 'Tourist' means a visitor to Uganda who stays at least one night in the country and less than 12 months (1 year) without engaging in any remunerative activity.

The visitors who do not stay at least one night in the country are called 'Excursionists' (or day visitors). They include for instance airline passengers who break journey to change flights and disembark for a day visit, and traders who cross the border and return the same day, etc.

This survey only covers departing tourists, i.e. those visitors who have stayed at least one night in the country. However, the term visitor is also used in this Guide interchangeably for better reading, but with the same meaning.
