What should I pay attention to when traveling to Thailand?

When you come to a country after going abroad, you must abide by the regulations of this country. Thailand is also a child spoiled by nature, especially Pattaya Island, which is famous for its sunshine, beaches and seafood. In fact, Thailand has a lot to pay attention to.

First, do your homework before you leave, and don't panic when traveling in Thailand.

Please know the latest entry policy of Thailand before you travel. If you apply for landing visa, please prepare relevant materials in advance according to the requirements of Thailand. Before entering the country, please purchase medical insurance, including the cost of treatment in COVID-19. Before taking part in a group tour, tourists must carefully read the itinerary, quotation and contract samples provided by the group tour travel agency, focusing on whether the group tour fee includes the cost of nucleic acid testing before returning to China, whether the group tour travel agency has purchased medical insurance for tourists including the cost of treatment in COVID-19, whether it bears the expenses incurred by tourists staying in Thailand due to the epidemic, and sign a formal travel contract. If you have a tourism dispute during your stay in Thailand, please call the Thai Tourism Police at 1 155 (including Chinese service) to report to the police, so as to safeguard your legitimate rights and interests according to law.

The second is to abide by local laws and carry alcohol and tobacco carefully.

According to Thai law, each tourist is only allowed to bring 1 cigarette (200 cigarettes or 250g tobacco) and 1 bottle of wine (no more than 1 liter) into the country. At the same time, please be careful not to put more than one person's cigarettes and alcohol in one person's luggage, or leave them in the airport area to be kept by one person, otherwise they will be regarded as excess carrying and will be fined. Please observe the relevant regulations of e-cigarettes. Please do not carry or use electronic cigarettes and related products. Offenders will be sentenced to imprisonment or a fine.

Three, wading activities should pay attention to traffic safety.

There are many kinds of beach leisure projects in Thailand, and wading activities such as snorkeling and swimming are risky. Please wear a life jacket and listen to the guidance and training of professionals when participating in wading activities. In case of big waves and dangerous sea conditions, tourists are forbidden to put red flags into the sea on the beach. Please be sure to abide by them. Thailand has complicated local road conditions, fast speed and high traffic accidents. Please rent motorcycles carefully. The right rudder of the vehicle turns left, which is contrary to domestic traffic habits. Please pay attention to traffic safety and be careful when crossing the road. You can only rent a car with a Thai driver's license or an international driver's license. Please obey the local traffic rules.

Thailand is one of the powerful Buddhist countries, and the status of Buddhism in Thailand is sacred and inviolable. Any blasphemy can be detained, even for foreign tourists. This is very important! Respect local customs, and they will make friends with you in a friendly way.

Conclusion: I need to know more about some taboos and precautions in Thailand. Traveling to Thailand is cheap and good, and the service is good, so it is highly recommended to travel to Thailand.
