Thailand, one of the most visited destinations for Indian travellers, has introduced a significant change to its entry rules, impacting how tourists plan their trips. The country has cancelled its widely used 60-day visa-free scheme for all 93 countries and territories, including India, as part of a broader effort to simplify and reorganise visa categories.
The revised framework, approved by Thailand’s Cabinet, shifts the focus towards more streamlined entry processes and clearer regulations. For Indian travellers in particular, the change marks a notable shift, especially after the relatively recent introduction of extended visa-free stays in July 2024.
