Description The 2021 Tonga Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES) questionnaire was developed in English and Tongan language and it follows the Pacific Standard HIES questionnaire structure. It is administered on CAPI using Survey Solution, and the diary is no longer part of the form. All transactions (food, non food, home production and gifts) are collected through different recall sections during the same visit. The traditional 14 days diary is no longer recommended in the region.
This new method of implementing the HIES present some interesting and valuable advantages such as: cost saving, data quality, time reduction for data processing and reporting.
Only a sub sample of the selected HIES sample was asked to fill a 2-week diary (in addition to the core recall HIES questionnaire). But only the recall sections are used to compute the HIES outputs and aggregates, this sub sample HIES diary was made for research purposes.

Below is a list of all modules in this questionnaire:
-Household ID
-Demographic characteristics
