Abortion in Thailand is illegal except in very specific cases: where the mother's life, or physical or mental health is at risk, and when the pregnancy is the result of incest or rape. There are family planning clinics throughout the country.
In Thailand abortion is illegal apart from in the following cases:
Only a fully qualified medical practitioner is allowed to carry out the termination and it is not available at all hospitals. A legal procedure has to be followed in order to get the necessary paperwork to submit to the doctor. Family PlanningThe Planned Parenthood Association of Thailand has a number of clinics throughout the country and can give advice on family planning issues.
In the 1960s the Thai government introduced a successful family planning policy that continues to this day. The Population and Community Development Association (PDA) is a Non-Governmental Organisation that offers a wide variety of services including family planning to help the poor in rural areas in Thailand.
