Statistical releases
The Bank of Estonia produces statistics on foreign travel in connection with the bank's task of compiling the balance of payments for Estonia, which includes the exports and imports of travel services.
Its statistical release is independent of economic policy releases and presented separately.
The central bank will publish the balance of payments for the second quarter of 2022 next month, and statistics for third quarter foreign travel in November.
