Miss World Thailand (formerly known as Miss Thailand World) is a Thai national beauty pageant in which the winner is sent to compete in Miss World, one of the Big Four major international beauty pageants.

The current Miss World Thailand is Kanteera Techaphattanakul of Chiang Mai.

History

In 1985, BEC-Tero Entertainment (Channel 3) was granted the rights to organize the Miss Thailand World pageant and send Thailand's representative to compete at Miss World. Parnlekha Wanmuang was crowned the first Miss Thailand World in the same year.

In 2025, Tero Entertainment partnered with TPN Global. On 22 April 2025, they officially appointed Suchata Chuangsri as Miss World Thailand 2025 and renamed the pageant to Miss World Thailand.[2]

Suchata Chuangsri went on to win Miss World 2025, marking Thailand's first-ever victory at Miss World.[3]
