The Tourist Police Division's main missions: are to help, service, and provide safety for the security in both the Thai and foreign tourists. The Division collaborates with concerned organizations of both the government and private sectors in order to strengthen the tourist industry of the country.
In the past, the travel industry in the country had quite a rapid growth and the increasing number of travelers from every corner of the world continued to grow. This has created a large income which has promoted a state of economic expansion. At present, earnings collected from the tourist industry are to be used to pay the country's expenses, particularly in the situation when the nation has encountered an economic slump. This source of income is considered as a significant return for the country's economy. At the same time, the likelihood of problems concerned with security of the tourist are increasing as well.
Accordingly, the policies of the Tourist Police Division are set up to maximise efficiency and to accord wiht the main policies of the Royal Thai Police and the Central Investigation Bureau. For the utmost safety of tourists and to reach the objectives of the Tourist Police Division, 7 operational policies have been set up, as follows:
