History

A Thai entry stamp on a Chinese passport, indicates the visitor may stay no more than 30 days in this entry

In May 2014, there was a brief crackdown on visa runs during 2014 Thai coup d'état, meaning that if foreigners wish to re-enter Thailand after their visa-free or visa on arrival period has expired they have to obtain a visa in advance, or remain outside Thailand at least for one night. ^[1]

In August 2014, Thailand Prime Minister ordered the Immigration Police to be more flexible as the strict application of the law was affecting schools and the tourist industry. ^[2]

On 31 October 2018 it was announced that within 30 days (by the end of November 2018), overstay visas will no longer be allowed, and there will be no remaining overstayers in the kingdom by that date. ^[3]

Beginning 1 May 2025, all foreigners entering Thailand will be required to apply for the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC), an electronic travel authorization. ^[4]

As of June 2025, Thailand has reduced permitted stays of Cambodian nationals from 60 days to 7 days, as a reciprocity measure of 2025 Cambodian–Thai border crisis. ^[5]

In November 2025, Thailand again imposed stricter immigration rules in a bid to crack down on foreign criminals engaged in cybercrime. ^[6] Foreign nationals exceeding the maximum limit of two visa-free entries per year without a valid reason will be denied entry into Thailand. However, the new rules were poorly publicised according to the Thai tourism industry, which called on the Thai authorities to clarify the updated rules and ensure that the information reaches tourists planning to enter Thailand without a visa. ^[7] In January 2026, it was clarified that there is no such rule that restricts foreign nationals to enter Thailand visa-free only twice per year. ^[8]

On 15 December 2025, Thailand implemented enhanced security measures at major Thai airports targeting two "high-risk groups", ^{[9] [10]} namely Cambodian nationals and suspected "mercenaries from Eastern Europe and Northern Asia" entering Thailand without a visa. ^{[11] [12]}

The ETA will be required for all visa-exempt travelers entering Thailand, regardless of their mode of entry (air, sea, or land). Applications will be submitted through the existing electronic visa portal and each entry into Thailand will require a separate ETA application, which is planned to be free of charge. It will enable holders to use automated gates at immigration checkpoints by scanning a QR code provided with their authorization.

Work permit

To legally work in Thailand, a foreigner must apply for a work permit. Work permit is a legal document that states a foreigner's position, current occupation, or job description and the Thai company he is working with. It also serves as a license to perform a job or an occupation allowed for foreigners inside Thailand.

A foreigner is eligible to apply for a work permit as long as he has a non-immigrant visa or a resident visa, has an available employer who will provide documents for work permit, and the occupation he will perform is not prohibited to foreigners. ^[35]

One Stop Service Centre for Visas and Work Permits

The One Stop Service Centre for Visas and Work Permits was established on 1 July 1997 by authority of the Regulations of the Office of Prime Minister promulgated on 30 June 1997.

The objective of this centre is to simplify visa extension and permit issuance procedures to create a good investment environment. It aims to facilitate applications of visa extension and work permits (e.g., stay permission, re-entry permit, work permit).

The Center is located on Chamchuree Square Building, Floor 18, Phatumwan, Bangkok. ^[36]
