AMAZING THAIVERSITY – PRIDE EDITION
Thailand is open in so many ways! Not only is it open as a tourism destination, but also as a diverse, tolerant, and welcoming culture for travellers of every background including those in the LGBTQ+ community. 
In this special Pride edition, we proudly share Thailand’s diverse array of unique destinations and experiences for all visitors. Thailand’s unique culture makes everyone feel safe and welcome regardless of their background, race, religion or sexuality. 
As we embark on Pride Month in Canada, we hope you will look to Thailand for inspiration and celebration.
THAILAND IS OPEN!
International travellers who are fully vaccinated are no longer required to undergo any COVID tests prior to arriving in Thailand or during their stay.   
Travellers must still apply for a Thailand Pass but starting June 1 will only need to provide some basic personal information, and the system will then automatically issue a Thailand Pass.
Unvaccinated/not fully vaccinated travellers who are able to upload proof of a negative COVID test via the Thailand Pass system will also be allowed entry and are free to go anywhere in the Kingdom.
HOTELS AND RESORTS FOR QUEER TRAVELLERS
LGBTQ+ HOTELS AND RESORTS
To assist you with Thailand product selection, we have created a list of hotels and resorts that offer unique services, special packages, and a safe and welcoming setting for queer travellers. 
This list will continue to grow with more offerings and direct contacts for suppliers. You can access this list in our Thailand Experts Media Portal.
