So despite the lack of theories, the present article is aimed to evaluate factors influencing RFID acceptance in tourism businesses, focusing on the population of executive operating in Yazd tourism sector and using Davis technology Acceptance model (TAM) as well as Tornatzkey and Flisher's technology – organization – environment model (TOE) and using equation modeling techniques. Then, using hierarchical analysis approach, this article specifies the priority of identified factors influencing decision making of this technology acceptance. According to the results, senior management support and technical knowledge from organizational dimensions, compatibility, usefulness, ease of use, security risks and lack of standards from technological dimension, external pressure from environmental dimensions and costs from an economic dimension are factors influencing RFID technology acceptance in tourism industry.
