Research into internationalisation in tourism is receiving increasing attention. This interest is associated with economic, social, territorial and other concerns. The importance attributed to the contribution that tourism can make to the development of countries and regions and its economic, environmental and social impact explain this attention. The topicality and relevance of the subject justify the scientific community also looking into the internationalisation of destinations, with the aim of adding value through the knowledge it generates and the research it carries out. This work seeks to explain what triggers it, what facilitates it and what conditions need to be taken into account in the process of internationalising tourist destinations, from the perspective of supply.
