For Indian and Taiwanese citizens, they will be granted a temporary visa exemption for a 30-day stay for tourism purposes in Thailand, effective from 10 November 2023 until 10 May 2024.
And from today until 30 April 2024, holders of Russian passports or travel documents will be entitled to a tourist visa exemption for a 90-day stay in Thailand, up from the original 30 days.
