This paper sheds some light on the impact of regional trade agreements (RTAs) on international tourism demand in Vietnam. They are using gravity model with data from 29 countries with the highest number of tourists to Vietnam from 2007-2019. The empirical findings indicate a relevant degree of...

We estimate the effect of RTAs on bilateral exports by means of a gravity model analyzing its sensitivity to different specifications and methods. RTAs generate a sizable positive effect. However, shifting to country-pair and time-varying fixed effects systematically reduces coefficients....
