Thailand's visa regulations are currently undergoing changes. Travelers must verify the latest requirements before purchasing flights and re-check 1–2 weeks prior to departure.
The right to enter Thailand is determined by the passport-issuing country, passport type, purpose of visit, and intended length of stay—not solely by your country of residence. Please verify your eligibility via the Official Thai e-Visa Website.
While the previous 60-day visa exemption is temporarily still in effect, the Thai government has approved new measures that will alter durations or change privilege types for several countries. These new measures are awaiting publication in the Royal Gazette and will take effect 15 days after publication. Do not rely solely on outdated information. Read the Thai Government's announcement.
Applicable only to passport holders of eligible countries. Immigration officers may still request to see an onward ticket, proof of accommodation, financial evidence, and the purpose of your visit.
Current condition: You should be able to show proof of funds equivalent to at least 20,000 THB per person or 40,000 THB per family. If your treatment plan exceeds the allowed duration, applying for a medical visa in advance is recommended. Read more conditions.
Suitable for treatments lasting up to 60 days. You should start the application process about 30 days before travel. Basic required documents:
Required if you expect your treatment to exceed 60 days, require long-term recovery, or have companions who need a visa status tied to medical treatment.
Primarily intended for tourism. Patients traveling primarily for medical treatment should confirm with the Thai Embassy before traveling.
Your passport should be valid for at least 6 months on your date of travel, have at least 2 blank pages, and be in good condition.
All foreign nationals must complete the TDAC before entering Thailand.
Travelers aged 9 months and older must present an International Certificate of Vaccination if traveling from a risk country.
Currently, Thailand does not require COVID-19 vaccination certificates or test results to enter the country.
Bring medication in its original packaging with clear labels, and prepare a medical certificate or prescription in English.
