Is it allowed to drink alcohol on the street in Thailand?

Yes, in Thailand, you can drink alcoholic beverages on the street. Unlike in Russia, there is no strict prohibition on consumption in public places. However, according to Thai laws, alcohol consumption is prohibited in specific locations: at gas stations, temples, hospitals, pharmacies, educational institutions, and public parks. But even these rules have many exceptions.

Therefore, you can safely drink alcohol in any reasonable place, for example, on the beach or while walking along the promenade, and most likely, no one will bother you. At most, you might receive a polite remark. If you want to study the issue thoroughly, you can review the full text of the law "Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, BE 2551 (2008)" in English.
