Thailand Visa Guide
All you need to know about getting a Thai Visa
Welcome to my Thailand Visa Guide where I shall be discussing the various visas you may require for either a short or long stay.
For most of us, the
tourist visa
and the
non-immigrant-visa
which include
marriage
,
business
and
retirement
are the most important ones for which I shall concentrate. I shall also try and explain the visas in a more simplified manner as Thai visas can be a little confusing at the best of times.
There is good news for you if you are coming to Thailand for a short summer holiday. Getting a entry visa for Thailand is very easy indeed. For a short stay of up to 30 days you will be allowed to gain entry on arrival. It's as easy as that!
