Thailand

Language

  • The official language in Thailand is Thai.

Time Zone

  • Thailand is 13 hours ahead of our Salt Lake City mountain time.

Electricity

  • The power plug sockets used in Thailand are Type A, Type B, Type C, Type F and Type O.

Climate

  • Thailand enjoys a tropical climate which is influenced by seasonal monsoon winds. The southwest monsoon (May) brings a stream of warm moist air from the Indian Ocean towards Thailand, causing abundant rain over the country, especially the mountainous regions. Be sure to check the weather on the dates of your travel.

Health

  • Medical insurance is recommended when traveling to Thailand but not required.

Tips

  • Take note that although all tourism workers are paid a fixed salary, tips are used as their main income. It is considerate to tip your tourism workers although it is not required. Tourism workers should only be tipped if exceptional service is provided.

Currency

  • The legal currency in Thailand is the Thai Baht. 1 US dollar is equal to 36.58 Thai Baht (THB).

Water Safety

  • Avoid drinking tap water in Thailand. Stick to bottled or filtered water, which is widely available. Even in restaurants, request bottled water to ensure safety.

Transportation

  • Thailand offers various transportation options including taxis, tuk-tuks, buses, and BTS Skytrain (in Bangkok). Be sure to negotiate the fare before using tuk-tuks, as they don’t use meters. Ride-hailing apps like Grab are also convenient for getting around.

Dress Code

  • When visiting temples, modest attire is required. Cover your shoulders and knees, and avoid wearing revealing clothing. In some temples, you may need to remove your shoes before entering.

Local Etiquette

  • Thai culture places great importance on respect. A traditional greeting is the wai (palms pressed together with a slight bow). It is polite to return a wai when greeted this way. Avoid touching someone’s head or pointing your feet at people or religious objects.

Safety

  • Thailand is generally safe for tourists, but it’s important to stay vigilant in crowded areas and tourist spots to avoid pickpocketing. Be cautious when crossing the streets, as traffic can be unpredictable.

Shopping

  • Haggling is common in markets and street stalls. Don’t be afraid to negotiate for a better price, but always be respectful. In malls and department stores, prices are usually fixed.

National Holidays

  • Plan your trip around major Thai holidays such as Songkran (Thai New Year in April) and Loi Krathong (Festival of Lights in November) if you want to experience unique local celebrations. These holidays may also affect business hours and transportation.
