What is the United States Travel And Tourism Administration?

United States Travel and Tourism Administration was a former agency, responsible for administering the travel and tourism offices of the United States in foreign countries. The goal of the agency was to enhance the international competitiveness of the United States travel and tourism industry. Currently, the National Travel and Tourism Office, under the Department of Commerce, is responsible for promoting growth in travel and tourism by reducing institutional barriers. A Little more on the United States Travel and Tourism Administration The United States Travel and Tourism Administration was replaced by the United States Travel and Tourism Administration in 1981. The later was responsible for operating the country's official travel and tourism offices worldwide. In 1996, the government of the United States decided to shut down all these offices, as the responsibility of USTTA was largely being fulfilled by the Visit USA Committee. Now, in foreign countries, the U.S tourism companies have their offices in the Visit USA Committees. The National Travel and Tourism Office creates a positive climate for promoting the tourism in the United States, manages joint marketing efforts, record official statistics related to the travel and tourism, and coordinates efforts across federal agencies through the Tourism Policy Council.
