Thailand’s 2026 Visa Rule Changes

In this episode, Jolie from Siam Legal explains the latest proposal by the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs to reduce the current 60-day visa-exempt stay to 30 days. The discussion looks at how this planned adjustment—unveiled in April 2026—aims to align entry with genuine tourism while curbing the use of short-term exemptions for unauthorized residency. It identifies the government’s broader strategy of tightening entry for "visa runners" while simultaneously encouraging high-quality visitors to transition to formal long-term tracks, ensuring that your stay in the Kingdom remains stable and legally compliant.
