🇹🇭 Thailand

Tourist Visa

Thailand offers visa exemption for 93 countries (30-60 days depending on nationality), plus traditional tourist visas for others. Single-entry tourist visa allows 60 days, extendable by 30 days at immigration. Multiple-entry tourist visa (METV) allows 60 days per entry over 6 months. As of 2025-2026, immigration has cracked down on "visa runs"—land border entries limited to 2 per calendar year. Overstays result in fines (THB 500/day, max 20,000) and potential bans. For longer stays, consider DTV, ED, or retirement visas.
