Humanity experiences the catastrophic effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. In view of this scenario, studies are needed to understand the impacts of catastrophes in the most varied dimensions. The tourism sector emerges as one of the most affected economic segments when disasters occur. For companies in the sector that operate globally, the consequences influence the actions of international entrepreneurs. This study aims to conduct a theoretical discussion of the relationship between catastrophe impacts in the tourism sector and international entrepreneurship. From this purpose, impacts of catastrophes on the tourism sector are identified, as well as the reactions of international entrepreneurship in this context. Therefore, from the literature, impacts of catastrophes on the tourism sector are observed, as in the case of the crisis in the hotel sector. In addition, it results in the main reactions of entrepreneurs in the face of catastrophes.
