Thailand: visa-free stays cut from 60 to 30 days, tourism only, for 60 nationalities

Since 15 September 2026 Thailand gives a 30-day tourist visa exemption to 60 nationalities (was 60 days for 93), 15 days to Seychelles and Mauritius, 14 days to Cambodia and Myanmar, and 90 days to Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Korea and Peru. Visa on arrival is now only for Azerbaijan, Belarus and Serbia.
