Thailand tightens visa rules for nearly 100 countries, including Australia
New entry restrictions affect visa-exempt travelers and those on standard tourist visas from dozens of nations.
Thailand's tighter rules reshape entry requirements for nearly 100 nationalities.
The specifics vary by nationality: some countries face reduced visa-free stay periods, others now require visas where they previously had visa-exempt access, and some face new documentation or health requirements. If you hold an Australian passport or are a citizen of another affected nation, check the Thai embassy or consulate website for your country's specific rules before booking travel or planning a longer stay. The changes may also affect digital nomads and retirees on repeated tourist visas or those considering Thailand as a base. Plan ahead and confirm current requirements with official sources.
