According to businessmirror.com.ph, Thailand has opened its country for tourists with a purpose to attract new and more digital nomads, which include freelancers, online workers, remote workers and so-called “anywhere workers”.
The number of freelancers and remote workers has doubled in the last two years
Yes, the pandemic has definitely changed the way we work. More and more have started working from home as employees, but many have also switched their careers and started freelancing.
Thailand has realized that online workers and freelancers are aiming flexible lifestyle, so they are offering them a chance to come and work during their wanted working hours, and then spend free time at the beach, in nature, and socializing with other similar professionals.
Thailand has always been one of the top destinations for all remote workers and digital nomads
Countries such as Thailand, Colombia, Spain, Portugal, Mexico, and Indonesia have always been attractive to digital nomads of all sorts. More than a third of freelancers claim that they would like to travel while working. Because they are not bounded by a specific place and particular time span, freelancers and other remote workers say that their quality of life rapidly increases while working and traveling. This way, many feel that they are not even working, but living their life to the fullest.
Thailand is calling freelancers these ways
A new campaign has been opened under the name “Visit Thailand Year 2022 Amazing New Chapter. This country has a plan to encourage the increase in international tourist arrival, but they are also providing something nowadays tourists would like. Thailand is not only a great place to take a rest and enjoy, but they are no longer requiring quarantine for hotel arrivals.

If you are an unvaccinated freelancer, but still interested in visiting Thailand, working there, and having a vacation at the same time, know that you can come by taking a PCR test within 72 hours of travel.
