The
Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) was established on March 18, 1960,
the first organization in Thailand to be responsible specifically for the
promotion of tourism. TAT supplies information and data on tourist
areas to the public, publicizes Thailand so as to encourage Thai and international
tourists to travel in Thailand, conducts studies to set development plans
for tourist areas, and co-operates with and supports the production and
development of personnel in the field of tourism. Since the inception of
the first local office of TAT in Chiang Mai in 1968, there are now 22 local
offices throughout Thailand. TAT has also established many overseas offices
the first being the New York office in 1965. TAT has since established
15 more offices in different parts of the world during the past 30 years.
