Thailand offers visa free entry to Indians for upto 30 days stay

In a move to boost tourism, Thailand is set to waive off visa requirements for travellers coming from India as well as Taiwan from the coming month to May 2024, said a government official in a statement on Tuesday (Oct 31).

"Arrivals from India and Taiwan can enter Thailand for 30 days," spokesperson Chai Wacharonke said.
Thailand had scrapped visa requirements for Chinese tourists in September this year.
China ranked first in Bangkok's pre-pandemic tourism market with 11 million of the record 39 million arrivals in 2019.
So far this year, India has been Thailand's fourth largest source market for tourism with nearly 1.2 million arrivals after countries like Malaysia, China and South Korea.
As per the latest government data, nearly 22 million people visited Thailand from January to October 29, generating 927.5 billion baht ($25.67 billion).
