Thailand DMC in Australia — for Australian travel agents & tour operators
Net B2B rates, market-specific handling and 24/7 ground operations across Thailand — built for the way agencies in Australia sell. You own the client; we own the ground.
Getting your clients here
Direct and one-stop routes from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth into Bangkok and Phuket (Thai Airways, Qantas, Jetstar) — roughly 9 hours from the east coast.
What Australian travellers want
Australians are Thailand’s repeat-visit market: beach-and-nightlife in Phuket, family pool-villa resorts, and increasingly Khao Lak and Koh Samui for second trips. School-holiday peaks (Dec–Jan, Easter, July) drive demand; AUD-friendly billing via our ANZ account keeps margins clean.
When this market travels
December–January and the July school break — book allotments two seasons out.
Currency, payment & billing
AUD receiving account (ANZ, BSB 013943) — invoice and settle in AUD with no double conversion.
How Explera supports the Australia trade.
Explera builds Thailand programs for Australia around direct flight schedules and short, repeat breaks of four to seven nights, with series and ad-hoc FIT on the same net-rate contracts. Series departures and ad-hoc FIT sit on the same confidential contracts, so you never re-negotiate for volume.
Quoting for Australia is built for your margins: clear per-person grids, child and extra-bed policies up front, and pricing in your working currency. Deposit and final-payment schedules are sized to your lead times, with secure card and bank-transfer settlement.
Australian clients get Mandarin, Japanese and Korean-language guiding on request and our own GPS-tracked fleet across Thailand. Drivers run our own insured, GPS-tracked fleet, and the 24/7 duty desk covers every ground hour of the trip.

Asked by agents in Australia.
Why do Australian travel agents need a Thailand DMC?
Working with a Thailand DMC means Australia agencies hold the client relationship and the mark-up, while Explera owns delivery on the ground with confidential net rates.
How fast are quotations for this market?
Most FIT and group RFQs return within 24 hours, fully costed in your working currency; complex MICE programs are scoped within 2–3 business days.
Do you provide language support for Australia?
English-language account management is standard, and Mandarin, Japanese and Korean guides are assigned to match your clients.
Which parts of Thailand do Australian clients book most?
We route by season and region so the Thailand program fits the travel dates, not the other way around — anchor cities first, then the right extension.
How do agencies in Australia settle invoices with Explera?
Quotations are issued in your working currency with dedicated multi-currency receiving accounts plus secure card payment, every transfer confirmed in writing — see the payments page.
Is Explera a licensed, accredited operator?
Yes — Explera operates under Tourism Authority of Thailand licence No. 34/03219 and IATA accreditation 96215733, with registered entities in Hong Kong and India. Licence numbers are printed on every quotation so your compliance team can verify before contracting.
What is the minimum group size or booking value?
There is none — the same net-rate access covers a two-person honeymoon and a 500-delegate incentive. Most Australia partners start with one FIT booking to test the service.
Can Explera white-label documents for our agency brand?
Yes — itineraries, vouchers and pickup boards can carry your branding, with Explera appearing only as the ground operator. Your client relationship stays yours.
