Explanation

การท่องเที่ยวแห่งประเทศไทย is a proper noun meaning the Tourism Authority of Thailand. Although การท่องเที่ยว means “tourism” and แห่งประเทศไทย means “of Thailand,” the full phrase is used as the fixed name of the organization, not as a general phrase for tourism in Thailand. Its Thai abbreviation is ททท., and its English abbreviation is TAT.

Usage

It is used in tourism news, official announcements, travel campaigns, tourism statistics, and travel information, especially when naming the agency as a source, organizer, or announcer.

Caution

Do not use this phrase to mean “traveling in Thailand” or “Thai tourism” in general. For that, use expressions such as การท่องเที่ยวในประเทศไทย or เที่ยวไทย.
