Thailand's New Rules Blocking Alcohol Sales to Drunk Customers

Thailand Introduces New Rules Blocking Alcohol Sales to Drunk Customers

Thailand has introduced a new legal measure prohibiting alcohol sales to customers who are already intoxicated. The regulation places responsibility on sellers to assess a customer’s condition before serving them. Authorities say the move aims to reduce alcohol-related violence, accidents, and public disorder. Businesses that ignore the rule could face fines or further penalties. The law is expected to increase scrutiny on bars, restaurants, and convenience stores nationwide.
