Resumo:Residents are an important stakeholder in tourism destinations. In this sense, this study aimed to identify in the cross-border zone towards tourism. A questionnaire was applied between April and May 2023 to residents older than 18 years that were randomly approached in shops, parks, restaurants, streets, and residences. A total of 470 valid questionnaires were considered for descriptive analysis of the impacts' means and standard deviation. Residents tend to perceive positively tourism in cross-border areas. The impacts that presented the highest mean were the economics, followed by the sociocultural and in the last, the environmental impacts. One of the stuady's limitations is the sample number difference between the residents of Portugal and Spain, which makes some comparative aspects between the two populations difficult. This is the first study about residents perceptions in the cross-border area of Portugal (Terras de Trás-os-Montes) and Spain (Castilla y León), characterizing the study's originality.
