Nattachit Oonsiam appointed Director of TAT Mumbai Office

Oonsiam will oversee Thailand’s tourism promotion in Western and Southern India, including key markets such as Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.

The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has appointed Nattachit Oonsiam as the new Director of its Mumbai Office, where he will lead destination marketing efforts and deepen trade and media partnerships across Western and Southern India, one of Thailand’s most vital source regions for inbound tourism.

Before his posting in India, he served as Director of the ASEAN, South Asia and South Pacific Marketing Division, overseeing tourism promotion across more than ten key markets, including India, Australia, and ASEAN countries.

Commenting on his new assignment, Oonsiam said: “Thailand and India share more than just proximity, there is cultural closeness, emotional resonance, and an appetite for authentic travel experiences. My focus will be on strengthening these ties through sustained collaboration with travel agents, media, airlines, and influencers across Western and Southern India, and on presenting Thailand in fresh, compelling ways to both first-time and repeat travellers.”

As Director of the Mumbai Office, Oonsiam will oversee Thailand’s tourism promotion in Western and Southern India, including key markets such as Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. His focus will include destination diversification, digital outreach, and building visibility for niche tourism segments such as luxury, wellness, weddings, culinary, and family travel. Oonsiam’s leadership is expected to play a critical role in shaping the next phase of growth and collaboration.
