A Guide On How To Behave In Thailand

Thai people put great emphasis on good manners and
politeness so it will help if you understand some of their
customs and beliefs when you home stay with a Thai family
or traveling in Thailand. Also, should you have a problem of any kind,
remember, a smile will be of much more help than a scowl.

1. When entering a Thai home, or temple, it is customary to
remove your shoes. This is not simply a religious customs but
has practical implications. Also, do not point your feet at anyone
or use it to indicate anything.

2. The King and all the Royal Family are held in extremely
high regard by all Thai people and due respect is required.
This also applies to money, or any other object bearing the
King's image. Above all, do NOT put your foot on money.

3. Any insult to the Buddhist religion or Buddha icons or
images can carry heavy penalties. Again, respect must
be shown at all times and, when visiting temples,
appropriate clothing must be worn. When entering
temple you are requested to dress appropriately.
Singlets and shorts are not acceptable.
Also touching any part of a monk, or his robes,
is strictly taboo.

4. A 'wai' is when hands are put in front of the face
as a gesture of greeting or respect. It has many
meanings and visitors are advised only to reply to a
'wai' rather than 'lead the way'. It is never proper to
'wai' to servants or children although it is appropriate to 'return' a wai.

5. Always observe extreme caution with your
money and valuables. Such things as passports and
credit cards should not be carried externally.
Shoulder bags and handbags may be especially vulnerable.

6. It is advisable not to drink tap water. Bottled or carbonated
water is cheaply and readily available.

7. If traveling in a taxi or tuk tuk it is usual (not the norm)
to settle the fare before you begin your journey.

8. When beckoning waiters, or anyone, do so with
your palm down and fingers straight with an up and
down movement. Never, clap, snap your fingers, or whistle.

9. Do Not accept offers of food, drink, candies,
or free trips from strangers or taxi drivers.

10. Fooling with Drugs is a very serious offence in Thailand.
