Watch out for
You must hold an approved e-Visa before you travel; do not rely on visa exemption or visa on arrival for this route.
If your passport was issued by a country other than your nationality, Thai authorities may require you to apply for a tourist visa. [11]
The embassy or consulate may require extra documents beyond the standard list, so check the mission's website before applying. [12]
