Thailand Promotes A Number Of Subsidy Policies For Chinese Exhibition Traders To Promote Trade Between China And Thailand

Thailand promotes exhibition subsidy policy to attract Chinese businessmen

(hereinafter referred to as "TCEB") recently held the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau exhibition business forum in Beijing to publicize the series of exhibition support policies to promote its "business connection" plan, so as to expand the visibility of Thailand exhibition and attract more Chinese businessmen to Thailand to participate in exhibitions, exhibitions and exhibitions.

TCEB's support for the new deal includes funding subsidies for the professional buyers participating in the Thailand exhibition. The specific measures include more than 10 buyers who will receive a cash subsidy of US $100 per person. The number of 100-250 groups will increase the amount of 5%-15% on the basis of the original subsidy, but the total amount of each individual group should not exceed $400 thousand.

Although the subsidy policy is quite attractive, there are many restrictions on the requirements of professional buyers.

According to the "business connection" plan, only the local and overseas associations, trade associations, chambers of Commerce, overseas non-profit organizations, overseas publishing organizations, exhibition and travel agencies and other organizations will be eligible for the grant. At the same time, each businessman needs to complete at least 3 sets of trade negotiations and stay in Thailand for at least 3 days and 2 nights. The maximum number of applicants for each exhibition and major event is 300.

The subsidy is valid from October 1, 2014 to September 30, 2015.

In addition to subsidized professional buyers, TCEB will also give more concessions to the organizers of the exhibition to Thailand.

The maximum amount of subsidy is up to 600 thousand yuan, but it also means the qualification requirements for the sponsor.

The ability to investigate will also be higher.

At the same time, the support policy also includes a special access to MICE merchants' airport in Thailand, and a gift package containing WiFi cards and subway cards to buyers.

Thailand's policy is good news for domestic exhibition industry.

According to Zhao Rui, director of exhibitions and activities department of Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau, "the Chinese market is the first choice for the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau and the Thailand government. We hope to promote Chinese businessmen to Thailand through the exhibition platform and our support policies.

And realizing pactions to drive economic and trade growth.
