This Global Data Barometer Country profile for Thailand provides a quick overview of the strengths and weaknesses with regards to data capabilities, governance, availability and impact, and in comparison with other countries in the region and globally.

Thailand has some high capabilities in terms of data matters, such as having accessible civil servants training, data hackathons for data reuse and widespread open data initiatives. In terms of Governance, Thailand faired well in data protection as they have a law, whilst having a framework in data management and a yet-to-be-enforced Digital Government Standard. Thailand could do some improvement in terms of data availability in climate action and company information, as well as improving data quality to enable more use and impact of the data.
