Rio de Janeiro will host, in 2025, the ISO/TC 228 of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) focused on tourism activities. The event was created in 2005, with the active participation of Brazil, since the first meeting, through the Brazilian Tourism Committee (CB 54), the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards (ABNT). The dates of the event have not yet been set.

ISO/TC 228 is the technical committee of ISO whose objective is to develop international standards that guarantee the quality, safety and sustainability of tourism services. The group is currently led by Spain and is made up of 105 countries and dozens of tourism organisations. Since then, it has produced 46 international technical standards and is working on 17 new documents.
