The static linear panel model analysis was applied to examine the influence of tourists’ income, destination countries income, distance, free trade agreement, adjacent country, tourism price and language towards tourism demand in these countries. Tourism sector is vulnerable to external shocks, therefore, ASEAN+3 governments need to identify determinants of tourism demand to fully utilise their resources and efforts in sustaining the development of tourism sector in these countries.
