Useful advice needs
a visible standard.

We separate inspiration from fact.

Editorial recommendations explain why a place may fit a trip. Schedules, prices, entry rules and availability are treated as changeable facts and should be confirmed with the official provider before travel.

Freshness is shown.

Guides display their last editorial update. Event pages label recurring or variable schedules instead of presenting an unverified date as certain. Material changes trigger a new review.

Commercial links stay visible.

Affiliate or commercial relationships never change our factual standards. A tracked link is labelled by link type, and placeholder partnerships are never presented as active deals.

Local reality wins.

We favour first-hand checks, official sources and reputable operators. Weather, marine conditions, opening hours and transport can change quickly; the Diary keeps room for that uncertainty.

Our Community Promise

Our community's trust comes first.

Reviews must reflect genuine experiences. Hosted stays, complimentary meals, gifted activities, paid collaborations and affiliate links are clearly identified where relevant.

Working with Thailand Diary never guarantees a positive review.

We credit contributors, respect local people and cultures, and welcome corrections when something isn't right.

Share with care.

Be respectful of local people, cultures and fellow contributors. Describe what you experienced first-hand; distinguish opinion from fact, and disclose hosted, paid, gifted or other relevant relationships. Do not share someone else’s personal information, booking details or precise private location.

Copyright remains with you. Only submit material you own or have permission to share. Permission to review a submission is not permission to publish it; website and social-channel permissions are recorded separately. No spam, harassment, unlawful, harmful or misleading material.

Editors check submissions before publication and can request changes, reject or withdraw unsuitable material. Community recommendations do not guarantee safety or replace official advice. Businesses cannot purchase or veto an honest review.

For a factual correction, privacy concern or removal request, contact the editorial team. Include the page address and what needs attention. We review these through the existing contact workflow.

Conversations beneath posts.

Signed-in members can choose a public name and reply directly beneath a public post. Choosing “Reply publicly” publishes that text immediately; it does not create a contributor profile or change your Diary. Reading replies does not require an account.

Keep replies relevant and respectful. Do not post private contact details, other people’s personal information, spam or abuse. Disclose any business connection. You can remove your own reply; use Report to send a concern privately to the team, or contact us without signing in. Moderators can hide unsuitable replies. Reports are reviewed by people, not an instant emergency service.

Longer stories, reviews, photos and videos sent through Share Your Thailand still go through the separate private submission and permission process described above.
