The “Land of Smiles” is investing heavily in maintaining Thailand’s position as a top tourist destination. The government aims to generate a staggering THB 3.4 trillion in tourism revenue in 2025. To achieve this ambitious goal, Thailand is focusing on several key initiatives:

  • Simplified travel: A unified visa policy inspired by the Schengen model is in the works. The ‘Six Countries, One Destination Policy’ will streamline the visa process for travellers from ASEAN countries and beyond, making exploring multiple regional destinations easier.

  • Focus on hidden gems: Thailand will highlight its lesser-known treasures, such as the charming provinces of Nan, Phrae, and Sakon Nakhon, off-the-beaten-path destinations offering unique cultural experiences and stunning natural beauty. Amusement parks, shopping centres, and entertainment venues will be expanded to cater to more travellers.
  • ‘Five-Must Do’ experiences: The government is promoting the ‘Five-Must Do’ experiences: Must Taste, Must Try, Must Buy, Must Seek, and Must See, encompassing Thai cuisine, fashion, festivals, and beautiful scenery.
  • International events: Thailand will host exciting events throughout the year, including the thrilling Amazing Thailand Countdown 2025 MotoGP races in February and March and the iconic Songkran Festival in April.
  • Welcoming the private sector: Thailand invites the private sector to join forces to realise this ambitious vision. The government is actively seeking partnerships with travel agencies, investors, and media outlets to elevate the country’s tourism offerings.
