When the situation with Covid-19 began to improve, tourists from all over the world started flocking to Thailand, proving beyond a doubt that this country is a popular tourist destination. Visiting Thailand’s stunning sights is only part of the experience; tourists will also appreciate the country’s improved infrastructure and increased security.

      The “Tourist Police I Lert U” app, provided by the Ministry of Tourism and Sports’ Tourist Police Headquarters, is a must-have for visitors' safety while in Thailand. There are five readily available channels of contact (English, Chinese, Japanese, and Russian) that make communication quick and simple, thereby enhancing safety communication.

      Both iOS and Android platforms are available for setup. When an emergency occurs and assistance is required, responders can track the applicants’ smartphones via GPS, and the applicants can send a request for assistance by pressing a button and uploading a photo of the situation. The system will immediately notify the Emergency Notification Center 1155 of the event. Following that, staff members will call the number you provide and dispatch personnel to the GPS coordinates of the incident. 

      Additional language support will be added soon for ASEAN languages, French, German, and Arabic.
