If your final destination requires transit through Thailand, and you pass less than 12 hours<\/strong> in one of two main airports<\/strong> from the capital, you are not required to apply for a transit visa.

This does not take into consideration the number of hours spent on Thai soil, nor the airport where the flight will land, let alone the chosen airline.<\/p>\n If you want to discover the country during your transit of more than 12 hours<\/strong>, you will need to request a single entry tourist visa<\/strong>. This option entitles you to a maximum stay of 60 days. If you want to come back again, it would be better to opt for multi-entry tourist visa<\/strong>. With this visa, you can return up to 3 times within 6 months with a maximum stay of 60 days allowed each time.<\/p>\n If you fall into the category over 50s<\/strong>, do not hesitate to take advantage of the specific visas offered by the Thai authorities. Indeed, the OA e-Visa entitles you to multiple entries with a length of stay of one year<\/strong>. While the OX e-Visa offers you exceptional validity of 5 years without entry limits<\/strong>.<\/p>\n For your visa for Thailand, it is important to present:<\/p>\n You may be asked for additional documents<\/strong>.
