Planning Thailand Trip? Indian Embassy Issues Fresh Travel Advisory After Visa Rule Change
The Embassy of India in Bangkok has issued a fresh travel advisory for Indians planning to visit Thailand, urging them to keep all mandatory documents ready before departure and arrival to avoid immigration delays. Travellers have been asked to carry a passport with at least six months’ validity from the date of arrival, confirmed return flight tickets, hotel reservations and a clear travel itinerary. The advisory also reminds visitors to complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) within 72 hours before reaching Thailand and to obtain the correct visa based on the purpose of their visit.
The Embassy said travellers should ensure all documents are easily accessible before approaching immigration counters. Those travelling in groups have also been advised that every individual must carry their own set of travel documents.

Thailand travel advisory lists cash, visa and TDAC requirements
Indian tourists entering Thailand under the Visa Waiver or Visa on Arrival (VOA) scheme have been asked to carry at least 20,000 Thai Baht (THB), around Rs 57,467 at the current exchange rate, in cash per passenger.
The advisory also makes it clear that travellers who have secured a job in Thailand should not enter using the visa waiver or Visa on Arrival facility. Instead, they should obtain the appropriate employment visa before travelling.
