Thailand visa is an official document issued by Thailand as a sovereign country to people from other countries visiting Thailand. Unless the country has signed a visa-free agreement with Thailand, you must apply for a visa at a Thai embassy or consulate abroad before entering. Thailand currently grants visa-free treatment to residents of 57 countries/regions.

According to relevant Thai laws and regulations, those who overstay in Thailand will be fined 500 baht per day, up to 20,000 baht, and prohibited from re-entering for up to 10 years.

Citizens of all Western countries are eligible for visa-free entry, but the eastern parts of the EU (i.e. Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Bulgaria, Malta and Cyprus), although visas are required, can apply for a visa on arrival.
