THE 60 days visa exemption is still valid. Border runs are possible for some of the 93 Countries covered under this agreement. There has been discussions about reducing the number of days, but no decision yet. Since 1st May 2025 a new online requirement came into effect, it is called Thai Digital Arrival Card (TDAC). It’s easy to use and we do the report within minutes at the border.

15.05.2025: One of the challenges visitors facing while in Thailand is the fact that people get confused by the many wording, terminology and different rules set by (basically) each border or provincial Immigration. Travellers, under visa exemption scheme, arriving via an international airport will be given a 60 day visa exempt stamp, however people using OUT/IN method to extend their stay might be questioned after few visa exempt entries. There is no specific period given and there is no rule on how many visa exempt will be issued for one person. An old rule “90 days in a 180 days period” has been cancelled many years ago. The day you arrive is counted as first day.
1. The Visa Exemption List and Visa On Arrival List will be adjusted asap.
2. Other country’s passport holders must obtain Visa from a Thai diplomatic post abroad prior to commencing travel to Thailand.

And return the Work Permit as well, this is to avoid problem in future.
