Is Thailand visa-free

Thailand and China may implement visa exemption from September this year. According to Thailand's World Journal, Thailand and China have negotiated mutual exemption of tourist visas from September this year. Thai Prime Minister Yingluck welcomed this, hoping to attract more China tourists to Thailand every year, and urged Thailand to step up the implementation of this policy.

At present, the number of tourists from China is only 2 million per year, and visa exemption from Thailand will increase the number of tourists from China by 3 million to 4 million.

Thailand's visa-free access has won the approval and support of Prime Minister Yingluck, saying that it will vigorously promote the visa-free process for tourists from both countries, which is good news for both sides. Visa-free in Thailand means that you can enter Thailand without a visa, usually a local with a Thai passport or an elite visa holder in Thailand.

Landing visa refers to an entry visa to Thailand, which arrived at the airport or port of Thailand before entering Thailand, and applied for at the Customs of Immigration Bureau. The difference between the two is that one can enter the country without a visa, and the other is to arrive at the Thai airport first and then apply for an entry visa there. If you hold a non-landing visa visa and don't want to leave Thailand after the visa expires, you need to apply for an extension to the General Immigration Bureau of Thailand before the visa expires. Under normal circumstances, it can only be postponed once, and the longest time is no more than 30 days. To apply for visa extension, you need a copy of your passport, a 4×6cm photo, and an extension fee of 1900 baht. Under normal circumstances, visas on arrival will not be extended.

If there are special reasons, such as injuries that need to be treated in Thailand, handling judicial cases in Thailand, etc. , you can prepare the following materials to apply for an extension:
