What kind of paperwork do you need to get into thailand?

Question

ive been looking for the answer to this for my project but i cant find the answer! please help me!!!

Answer 1

In order to enter Thailand, you will need a valid passport and depending on what country you are from, a visa. Depending on the type of visa you have, you may need an proof that you will leave Thailand too (i.e., return ticket)

Answer 2

The answer depends on the nationality of the person seeking to enter Thailand. In many cases the answer is none other than a passport which is at least 6months before expiry, a valid ticket to leave the kingdom and completion of the landing card. However, people from different countries need to check the rule that applies to their particular case taking into account their natioanlity and the visa they would like (if, indeed, they need a visa at all); The rules for which are here:-

Answer 3

You will need a passport with at least 6 months left before it expires, you will need plane tickets from your nearest airport to Bangkok, Thailand.  There are some restrictions if you are a minor traveling alone.

The passport you hold will determine what visa you require.  Many countries (like US, UK, Canada, some EU countries, OZ, NZ, etc.) can get a free 30 day permission stamp in their passports (like a Visa On Arrival.)

You will need sufficient money to support yourself during your trip.
