Thailand accepted the UNESCO World Heritage Convention on 17 September 1987. Its World Heritage inscriptions include a mix of cultural and natural sites.

Cultural nominations often feature historic capitals from the Sukhothai and Ayutthaya eras, Buddhist and Dvaravati archaeological sites, and vernacular temple architecture. Natural listings showcase biodiversity-rich areas such as tropical forests and wildlife sanctuaries.
