About this data

The occupancy rate is the ministry's measure for accommodation establishments (สถานพักแรม), which include hotels, resorts and guest houses. The national rate fell to 14.0% in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic; in 2019 it was 70.1%.

A high rate in a small province can reflect limited room supply rather than heavy demand, so compare it with visitors and guest numbers on each province's page. Changes are shown in percentage points. Figures for 2025 have been revised after review by the ministry's statistics committee.

How to read the figures

The ministry publishes the rate as a percentage for each province and for Thailand as a whole, alongside the number of guests staying in accommodation, but its province tables do not set out how the rate is calculated, for example whether it counts rooms or beds. ThailandStats therefore reports the rate exactly as published and does not compare it with occupancy figures from hotel associations or private surveys, which use their own samples and definitions. The national rate is the ministry's own figure, not an average of the province rates calculated by ThailandStats. Figures for 2020 and 2021 are marked preliminary by the ministry.

Methodology

Figures are the Ministry of Tourism and Sports' January–December province table. The publisher defines visitors (ผู้เยี่ยมเยือน) as people travelling for tourism and other purposes such as visiting friends or relatives, whether or not they stay overnight, and whether they stay in accommodation, with friends or relatives, or elsewhere. Visitors are counted in each province they visit, so the national total is a count of province visits, not of people, and foreign visitors are not comparable with international arrivals. Revenue is the publisher's estimate of visitor spending in million baht. Occupancy is the accommodation occupancy rate in per cent. Each year is taken from the most recent release that reports it after review by the publisher's statistics committee (marked R), where one exists; the release is recorded for every value. The national figures are the publisher's own totals, not sums calculated by ThailandStats.

2020 and 2021 are marked P (preliminary). For those years the publisher counts foreign visitors as foreigners who entered Thailand before the border closure and stayed in the provinces, excluding foreigners working in Thailand.

The publisher's regional subtotals are not ingested: its regional grouping changed during the period and differs from the six-region system used on this site.

Two province names are misspelt in some releases (ประจวบศิรีขันธ์, ศรีษะเกษ) and are matched to Prachuap Khiri Khan and Sisaket.

Licence: the publisher does not state reuse terms (unconfirmed). Figures are republished as attributed statistical facts.
