According to ATOR with reference to the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), from January 1 to January 15 this year, 99,593 tourists from the Russian Federation visited the country, which was the best indicator among all states.
The top five also included:
Malaysia (89,461 tourists);
Korea (76,057);
India (47,471);
Laos (31,836).
It is emphasized that among non-Asian countries, Russia has no competitors in terms of tourist flow, since almost 3 times fewer tourists came from the UK, which occupies the second place, compared to the Russian Federation – 34,796 tourists.
In the near future, the final data on the tourist flow for the entire 2022 will be available.
