oldhippy 5027 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Hello all, I used to live in Thailand with a non o visa / married to a thai. Corona and a medical problem changed that. I want to visit Thailand again, as a short term tourist. Do I correctly understand that as a Belgian citizen I can get a "visa exemption" for 45 days? How much does this cost, and in which currency can I pay at immigration? Is Euro OK or do I need to bring Thai Baht? Many thanks for information.

Salerno 7736 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 No worries, enjoy your trip. Remember the rule re funds (highly unlikely to be asked but it does happen now and then) 10,000 Baht in cash (or equivalent in foreign currency). You'll often see this quoted as 20,000 Baht, which is for a family - as far as I'm aware the rules haven't changed but I may well have missed it. Never concerned me as I've always got more than 20K on me anyway (either fully in Baht or a mixture of various other currencies from travelling) and if you check various Thai embassy sites you get conflicting details. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
