TAT Launches “The New Thailand” – A Bold Vision for Sustainable, High-Value Tourism
Thailand is entering a new era of tourism, and TycoonDMC is proud to be part of the transformation. Under the ambitious “The New Thailand” strategy, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) is redefining the travel landscape with a focus on sustainability, emotional experiences, and value-driven tourism over volume.
What is “The New Thailand” Strategy?
Unveiled as part of Thailand’s 2026 tourism roadmap, the new strategy promotes the concept of “Value is the New Volume”. Instead of chasing large arrival numbers, the country is investing in purpose-led travel that connects deeply with visitors while protecting natural and cultural assets.
Key Pillars of the Strategy
- New Customer Segments: Focus on high-value travelers such as Gen Z, wellness seekers, digital nomads, and luxury explorers.
- New Experiences: Emphasis on wellness, culture, nature, soft power, creative tourism, and lesser-known gems.
- New Metrics: Moving beyond headcount to metrics like trust, sustainability, inclusivity, and satisfaction.
- New Partnerships: Closer collaboration between government, DMCs like TycoonDMC, hotels, airlines, and local communities.
- New Branding: Emotional storytelling with a message like “Healing is the New Luxury.”
How TycoonDMC Aligns with This Vision
As a modern luxury Destination Management Company, TycoonDMC is already operating with this future-ready mindset. Our curated travel services align perfectly with TAT’s shift toward meaningful, immersive, and sustainable tourism.
Here’s how we support “The New Thailand”:

- Customized Journeys: Themed itineraries for Gen Z, couples, digital nomads, and slow travelers.
Budget & National Goals
The Thai government has allocated 4.5 billion Baht to implement 22 tourism initiatives that support this strategy. The goal is to increase tourism revenue while preserving cultural identity, supporting small businesses, and driving sustainability in line with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Market Focus & Global Vision
TAT is sharpening its focus on key international markets including India, China, Korea, Japan, Europe, and the US. Custom campaigns, long-stay packages, and digital outreach will tailor experiences for each segment — a direction where TycoonDMC is already excelling.
