Now, visiting Thailand has become even easier for Indian passport holders. As of May 2025, Indian citizens no longer need a visa for stays of up to sixty days for tourism or business purposes. This new visa-free policy opens the door wider for Indian travellers eager to indulge in Thai experiences—from bustling street food scenes to luxurious beach resorts and spiritual temples. However, there are still a few essential requirements travellers need to fulfill before they pack their bags.
Thailand’s New Visa-Free Policy for Indian Citizens
In a move that strengthens tourism ties between India and Thailand, the Thai government has waived the visa requirement for Indian nationals as of May 2025. Under this policy, travellers can enjoy a stay of up to sixty days without the need to apply for a visa beforehand. The exemption applies to both tourists and business visitors, encouraging more flexible and spontaneous travel to the Land of Smiles.
