Thai Visa on Arrival & e-Visa Guide

Visa on Arrival

Many nationals receive 30 days visa-on-arrival when entering Thailand by air. Requirements include a valid passport, return ticket, and sometimes proof of funds. Travel insurance is not required but is recommended.

e-Visa

Thailand's e-Visa allows you to apply online before travel. It can suit longer stays or specific entry types. Check the official Thai e-Visa website for your nationality and current rules.

Thailand Travel and Insurance Guides: Visas, Healthcare and Trip Tips

The thailand-insurance.com blog is where we explain the practical side of a trip to Thailand, so the decisions around insurance and travel are easier to make. Rather than generic advice, we focus on what actually affects a traveller: how the Thai healthcare system treats foreign patients, why medical and repatriation cover matters, and how to read a policy so you know what you are buying.

You will find country-by-country guides to entry requirements for Thailand, written for specific nationalities, alongside explainers on visa-free entry, visa on arrival and the e-Visa. Because these rules change, we point readers to official sources and focus on the questions that stay relevant: what documents to carry, how long you can stay, and what to check before you fly.

We also write about the trips themselves — Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, Krabi, the islands and Pattaya — with packing checklists, seasonal advice for the cool season, the rainy season and Songkran, and guidance on handling a medical emergency abroad. The Thai emergency numbers are worth memorising before you need them: 1669 for medical, 191 for police and 199 for fire.

New articles are added regularly and written to be accurate and genuinely useful rather than padded. As thailand-insurance.com expands to other destinations, the blog will grow with it, but the aim stays the same: clear, honest information that helps you travel with fewer surprises.
