WHAT IS THAI SELECT?

Thai SELECT is the official international certification awarded by the Department of International Trade Promotion (DITP) to restaurants and food products that meet Thailand’s highest standards of authenticity, quality and culinary excellence.
Recognised around the world, the Thai SELECT seal assures diners and consumers that they are enjoying genuine Thai cuisine prepared using traditional recipes, authentic ingredients, skilled culinary techniques and the renowned warmth of Thai hospitality.
TWO CATEGORIES OF THAI SELECT CERTIFICATION
The Thai SELECT Programme recognises excellence in two key categories:
Thai SELECT Restaurants – Restaurants that consistently serve authentic Thai cuisine while preserving Thailand’s culinary traditions through quality ingredients, skilled chefs and exceptional hospitality.

Thai SELECT Products – Authentic Thai food products and ingredients certified to meet Thailand’s quality standards, allowing chefs and home cooks around the world to recreate genuine Thai flavours.
