DON'T GO TO THAILAND Until You Watch This (Crucial Immigration Advice)

Thailand immigration mistakes can turn an exciting holiday into a stressful experience before your trip has properly begun. Passport validity, visa requirements, the Thailand Digital Arrival Card, onward travel and permitted length of stay are all details tourists should understand before flying. In this video, we explain some of the most important Thailand immigration mistakes travellers should avoid, including relying on outdated visa information, confusing visa exemption with Visa on Arrival, completing the TDAC incorrectly, arriving without onward travel evidence and staying beyond your permitted period. We also look at what tourists should prepare before reaching immigration at Bangkok, Phuket or another international entry point, what documents may be requested and why returning visitors should check the latest rules rather than relying on what happened during a previous Thailand holiday.
