<p>Economic ties between the United Kingdom and Thailand are already strong – bilateral
trade in 2016 accounted for over £5 billion. The FCO works with the Department for
International Trade and Thai counterparts to encourage deeper economic ties, including
through engagement on high value opportunities, improving the conditions for business,
and supporting the Thailand UK Business Leadership Council established in 2016.</p><p>Tourism
between the UK and Thailand is high – we are pleased that over 1 million British nationals
visit Thailand every year. Whilst the FCO does not focus directly on increasing tourism
from the UK to Thailand, our Embassy in Bangkok is working to raise awareness in Thailand
of the UK as a dynamic and innovative destination for business, study and tourism.</p>
