Thailand
Thailand submitted its first Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) in 2016, followed by an updated version in 2020. Most recently, in November 2025, Thailand submitted its NDC 3.0.
The country commits to cut net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 47% by 2035, from 2019 levels, in line with the 1.5-degree C pathway and its goal of net zero by 2050.
Mitigation priorities include expanding green energy and efficiency, promoting electric mobility and hydrogen-powered transport systems, advancing industrial decarbonization, and introducing alternative rice straw management, alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation and improved livestock feed.
Priority mitigation measures target investments of USD 7.05 billion across the energy, transport, industrial processes, agriculture and waste sectors.
Thailand prepared its NDC 3.0 with the leadership of The Department of Climate Change and Environment (DCCE) (under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment – MNRE), through domestic institutional arrangements and broad public engagement, including outreach to local communities and gender-responsive considerations.
