Overview

Indian ordinary-passport holders travelling for tourism may qualify for Thailand's 30-day visa exemption, effective from 15 September 2026 until further announcement. Eligible travellers should not be sold a visa application they do not need. Entry conditions and the permitted stay are decided by the Thai authorities.

SRDV Technologies can help you check the route for your passport and purpose, plan supporting travel documents and understand current arrival requirements. Visa-exempt entry is different from a tourist e-Visa. For another nationality, a longer stay or a different purpose, the appropriate visa route must be assessed separately.

Any assistance is optional and quoted separately before you proceed. No visa application fee is implied for an eligible visa-exempt visit. Recheck eligibility, passport requirements and arrival formalities before travel. Guidance checked on 30 October 2026. Official reference: https://newdelhi.thaiembassy.org/en/page/visa

If a single-entry Tourist TR e-Visa is required, the embassy lists three months of visa validity and up to 60 days stay. Its India e-Visa implementation notice gives an approximate 14-working-day processing reference after the visa-fee receipt; recheck the applicable consular processing time and allow extra time. This option is not needed for a traveller who qualifies for the current exemption.

Terms

Authority timing and conditions

Processing is an indicative authority reference after a complete eligible submission; it is not a guaranteed decision deadline. Check the applicable office and route before filing, allow extra time, and follow the dates and conditions on the issued approval.

Quote and optional assistance

Ask for a written breakdown of any authority fee, service charge, tax and optional assistance before agreeing to proceed. An enquiry does not submit an application or reserve a travel service. Do not send passport or financial documents through an unverified channel.

Decision, changes and refunds

The destination authority decides approval and admission and may request additional information. Ask which authority and assistance charges apply, and which may be non-refundable, before payment. A refusal or change does not create an automatic refund entitlement.

Route-specific guidance

Eligible Indian ordinary-passport tourism visits may use the current exemption; this e-Visa option is for a profile or stay that actually needs it. The older e-Visa implementation notice supplies only an indicative processing reference; current entry eligibility must be checked separately.
