In a bid to extend its tourist attractiveness, Thailand has announced an interesting plan to offer free SIM cards to foreign tourists visiting the country. The campaign, titled “Welcome Back to Thailand”, is a collaboration between the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) and the Advanced Info Service (AIS).
According to a report by The Thaiger, the joint initiative goals to draw international visitors by providing them with Amazing Thaiger SIM cards that provide various advantages and digital services.
As per the plans, TAT will distribute 1 million mobile SIM cards with the additional advantage of exclusive e-vouchers from various cooperation partners. Distribution is scheduled to begin on Tuesday (October 17) and can last until March 31, 2027.
The distribution of SIM cards is organized by TAT’s regional office for South Asia and the Pacific in cooperation with various international travel agencies, airlines and related associations.
