The predicted growing contribution of tourism industry towards Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has led to an intense competition among countries to attract tourist. Thus, a differentiated brand is needed to brand tourist destination. The use of underdog brand strategy has been successful in the context of politics and products. Underdog destination is a place that competes with fewer privileges and resources, but with determination and perseverance of its local people they manage to face the obstacles to be successful. This study aims to examine the underdog effect towards intention to visit a tourist destination. Moderation effects of underdog disposition and individual/collective personal inventory was included in this research. Using experimental design, this research found that there is no general direct effect of underdog brand towards intention to visit a tourist destination. However, domestic and international tourist segment have different perception towards underdog branding. The underdog effect was only found in domestic tourist group. In general, the moderators did influence the effect. Underdog disposition, vertical individualism, horizontal collectivism, and vertical collectivism were the moderators that could influence the strength of underdog effect towards intention to visit.Ada tabel
