Preparing for a Trip to Thailand
When planning your travels consider not only the climate, but also the peak tourist months: December and August. The government’s Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) oversees and regulates tourism-related businesses, including hotels, restaurants, tour companies, and travel agencies, in an effort to reduce fraud and to encourage quality standards. It operates offices all over Thailand and in major foreign cities.
These offices have information and advice for travelers, and are also the authorities to which you should report any tourism-related fraud. Contact the TAT office nearest you for the most up-to-date information on Thailand.
