Reportedly, tourists have started to return in small numbers under a special long-stay tourist visa, which was launched by the government last month. This number is as per the data released by Thailand’s Tourism Ministry recently. The tourist footfall is compared with 3.07 million foreign tourists that visited the nation at the same time a year ago, and also the first since March, as per the data.
Currently, Thailand has relaxed most of its restrictions related to the Coronavirus to ensure that businesses fully reopen. While the nation is not promoting general tourism for now, certain sets of tourists are allowed under special clauses.
As per the official data, Thailand benefited a revenue of more than $60 billion from around 40 million visitors in 2019. However, the Tourism Ministry didn’t divulge details of revenue generated from the foreign tourists and stated that some of the information may be subject to revisions.
