Resumo: Coinciding with the beginning of the economic crisis in 2007, a process of reshoring, consisting of the return to the home country of a part or all of the activities previously offshored abroad can be observed in all advanced economies. This study aims to analyse for first time whether this strategy has affected the tourism sector. The results show that between 2007 and 2010 a major reshoring process took place in the tourism sub-sectors, while in 2015 the levels of offshoring recovered slightly but did not compensate the previous strong decline. This reshoring strategy in tourism is basically carried out through a replacement of foreign suppliers with national suppliers.
