January 2026 recorded 304,118 non-resident visitors (+9%). The first quarter of 2026 totalled 849,363 (+7.4% against 790,716), with March (Holy Week) at 299,298 (+6%). The January–May 2026 cumulative rose by only +14,380 visitors (+1.1%) because May 2026 fell −4%, with a sharp fall from El Salvador (−18,249 visitors) offset by Canada (+52%), Colombia (+30%) and Mexico (+26%). The same report gives an INGUAT security perception index of 92.4 (+6.8%), which is tourists' perception, not a crime rate.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
