It has been studied by countries’ GDP current US$, Gross fixed capital formation constant 2010 US$ and International tourism receipts current US$, in the study. It is determined that both equation and variable used in equation contain cross-section dependency. The result of CADF unit root test that allows cross-section dependence shows that all variables are stationary at the first level. Due to the equation contains cross-section dependence co-integration of variables has been investigated by Westerlund (2008) co-integration test which is second generation test and allows cross-section dependence. Finally tourism revenue has positive and statistically significant impact on economic growth has been determined by second generation estimator CCEMG.
