This paper analyzes the determinants for tourism in Maldives from the top ten countries. A collection of data from the panel is gathered from 2010 to 2018. The balanced panel model is used to analyze the relationship between nominal gross domestic product, exchange rate and transport costs of the top ten countries with the number of tourists arriving in Maldives. The results showed that the nominal gross domestic product, exchange rate and transportation costs of the top ten countries co-integrate with the number of tourist arrivals.
