The holiday destination is set to start charging overseas visitors $9.20 each from the start of June.
Thailand says tourist numbers jumped last year, as coronavirus restrictions were eased, but remains way below pre-pandemic levels.
Tourism revenue accounted for more than 10% of the country's gross domestic product in 2019. In 2021 it was just 1%. GDP, which measures all economic activity, is an important tool for looking at how well, or badly, an economy is doing.By aiming to more than double the number of people who visited before the pandemic, the Thai government hopes to see tourism spending rise above $150bn.
The announcement also said Thailand plans to upgrade "tourism safety standards in order to accommodate the influx of visitors." Like much of South East Asia, Thailand is expected to see a jump in tourist numbers from China, which dropped the strict border controls it put in place during the pandemic.
