Key developments include:

·         Relaxed alcohol laws and a new digital Arrival Card to enhance visitor convenience

·         Gastronomic tourism, with 400+ Michelin Guide listings and Thailand’s first 3-star Michelin restaurant, Sorn

Thailand’s green agenda was also spotlighted, with 16 destinations in the Green Destinations program. Nan Old Town received Asia’s only Gold Award, and the Krabi Prototype was introduced as a model for low-carbon tourism.

TAT also highlighted major 2025 events, including Pride Month, Phi Ta Khon, Wonderfruit, and the Amazing Thailand Countdown. Sports tourism will play a key role, with events like ONE Championship, the SEA Games, and the Thailand Marathon.

TTM+ 2025 brings together 406 buyers and 450 sellers, and is expected to generate over 4.2 billion baht in tourism revenue. Sustainability initiatives at the event include carbon offsetting and CSR donations to local schools.
