The Amazing Thailand Safety and Health Administration (SHA) Project
To ensure that both Thai and foreign tourists have a positive experience and they are happy and confident in the hygiene and safety standards of Thailand’s tourism products and services. Thailand started the Amazing Thailand Safety and Health Administration (SHA) Project.
The Amazing Thailand Safety and Health Administration project is a result of cooperation between:

So combining public health safety measures and companies’ high-quality service standards, we can prevent the spread of COVID-19. Because it will improve Thailand’s tourism products and service standards. So, Various boards in the tourism industry are in charge of inspection and certifying the result of improving a workplace according to the SHA standards.
Types of workplaces

The TAT grants SHA certificates and assigns a serial number to successful entrepreneurs. It records it in the database of the list of entrepreneurs who have received the SHA certificate. The entrepreneurs have to comply with the SHA standards because otherwise, TAT can cancel the SHA certificate. SHA gives hygiene and safety measures for tourists. During the re-opening time of companies or services, tourists and service receivers are asked to provide any suggestions by TAT. Data can be used for more improvements.
