The United States’ International Trade Administration has released data on international travel volume for June 2025. For that month, international visitor arrivals to the U.S. decreased 6.2% from a year earlier to 5,278,944 people. And as comparison, that is 83.4% of the pre-COVID total visitor volume reported for June 2019. Conversely outbound travel from U.S. citizens to other countries rose 2.5%, year-on-year, to 11,473,103 people. 

The most international visitor arrivals came from Mexico (1,375,762), followed by Canada (1,100,227), the United Kingdom (283,628), India (214,345), and Brazil (163,416). These top five source markets were 59.4% of the total arrivals. 

For business arrivals in June, the United Kingdom (44,638), India (39,273), Japan (29,416), Germany (23,933), and South Korea (18,711) were the largest markets. And for students coming into the country, the top five were China (10,031), India (8,545), South Korea (3,286), Brazil (1,839), and Taiwan (1,735).

The ITA said that the total U.S. citizen international visitor departures from the U.S. represents 109.9% of total departures in the pre-pandemic month of June 2019. For North America (Canada and Mexico), the year-to-date market share was 48.7%.
