Entry requirements for Thailand
| Where to apply | Apply for the e-Visa — official government portal. Avoid third-party visa sites. |
|---|---|
| Passport validity | 6 months months beyond arrival — Valid passport with at least 6 months validity from the arrival date. |
| Onward ticket | Often checked — Thai missions require confirmed flight itineraries including onward flights; MFA guidance also cites a round-trip ticket and funds of 10,000 THB per person / 20,000 THB per family; immigration may deny entry for repeated visa-exempt entries. Visa exemption for 93 countries/territories allows stays up to 60 days. |
| Yellow fever | Certificate required only when arriving from risk countries — >12h airport transit in a risk country also triggers the requirement (WHO Annex 1 footnote 5; the earlier WHO ITH country list applied it to any transit). |
| Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) | Mandatory free digital arrival card (documentation requirement, not a health measure or visa); must be submitted within 3 days before arrival via tdac.immigration.go.th. (All foreign nationals entering Thailand by air, land or sea (from 1 May 2025)) |
