South Africa's new visa regulations have badly hurt the country's key tourism sector, a government minister said Wednesday, as visitors dry up from key markets such as China.

Tourism Minister Derek Hanekom said figures for the first quarter of the year showed a "worrying drop" since a series of stringent regulations were imposed in an attempt to tackle child trafficking.

"The fact is there has been a considerable drop in tourism.... it is a worrying drop," Hanekom told Radio 702.

According to Statistic South Africa, the official statistics agency, tourists from China decreased by 38 percent in the first quarter compared to the previous period in 2014. India was down by 13 percent.

Overall tourist arrivals fell six percent, the biggest decline since 2009.
