Under what circumstances will a Thai visa be refused?

You must have seen the news about visa-free fees in landing visa, Thailand recently. Have many of them already started preparing for their trip to Thailand? So, today, Bian Xiang Xiao tells you why your visa application was rejected.

The visa refusal rate in Thailand is relatively low, but there are also some cases where visas will be refused. Let's see what the specific reason is!

Under what circumstances will a Thai visa be refused?

1. Go to Thailand often.

Applicants who frequently come and go to Thailand in a short period of time are easily suspected by Thai embassy officials that they have a serious tendency to emigrate.

I applied for a visa to Thailand, but I didn't go.

Due to the simplicity of visa processing in Thailand, more and more people apply for visas in Thailand, but some citizens fail to get visas. Those who don't get a Thai visa during the visa-free period in Thailand may be refused.

3. Passport has DT seal.

Refers to the applicant who borrowed a Thai visa but went to Hong Kong and Macao at the same time.

4. Enter the blacklist of Thailand

Visitors who have been to Thailand before and have criminal records during their stay in Thailand and are blacklisted in Thailand will also be refused visas.

5. Don't return to China after the visa expires.

During their stay in Thailand, citizens who have been punished for failing to return to China on time after the expiration of their visas are likely to be refused visas if they apply again.

6. Providing false materials

Applicants who go to the embassy to apply for a Thai visa in person need to submit employment certificates, deposit certificates and other materials. Some citizens who cannot provide false materials will be refused visas if they are found by the embassy.

Please pay special attention to:

Cash carrying

Because when the National Immigration Bureau of Thailand checks the entry, the immigration officer will check the cash carried by foreigners entering the country, which needs not less than 20,000 baht, about 4,000 RMB, and the bank credit card will be invalid. If the spot check is not up to standard, the immigration officer will refuse the foreigner entry.

Especially for tourists who choose to handle landing visa, Thailand will have a greater probability to spot check the cash of landing visa tourists, so we should pay special attention to it.

20 beaches in Thailand are completely smoke-free

At present, 20 of Thailand's most famous beaches have implemented smoking bans. Those who violate the ban will face a fine of more than 65.438 billion baht (about 20,000 yuan) or imprisonment for up to one year.

In addition, many people think that e-cigarettes are not cigarettes, but in Thailand, e-cigarettes are contraband, and once caught, they will face heavy penalties!

Respect local customs

Respect local customs, Thai royal family members and Buddhist etiquette. Every Buddha statue, big or small, is sacred. Don't climb or step on it, and don't put it in your trouser pocket. It is not allowed to climb the Buddha statue or climb the fence of the Buddhist temple to take pictures.

Especially in the Jade Buddha Temple, it is absolutely forbidden to take pictures. When you enter a Buddhist temple, you should dress neatly. You should take off your hat and shoes when you enter the Buddhist temple. No smoking.

About tipping

Thailand is one of the countries that are used to tipping, and tipping is a kind of etiquette. There are no hard and fast rules for tipping, but if you think the other party's service is good, you can still tip appropriately, 20-50 baht, or 10% of the consumption. Be careful not to give coins (coins are for beggars in Thailand.

Some restaurants charge a service fee, but you don't have to tip.
