Thailand announces huge changes to tourist visas in bid to boost tourism
- Single entry visas automatically changed to double entry
- Re-entry permit, rather than new visa if visiting neighbouring country
- Unlimited visa exempt entries at land borders per calendar year
THE CABINET yesterday agreed in principle to back measures to stimulate ThailandÂ’s tourism in the early high season.
Tourism and Sports Minister Weerasak Kowsurat said the Cabinet gave the green light for the “Amazing Thailand Grand Sale Passport Privileges” from November 15 until January 15, 2019. The Tourism Authority of Thailand will join the Finance Ministry to set additional special areas at tourism areas or department stores for tourists to facilitate convenient and quick refund of value added tax.
Nattaporn Jatusripitak, adviser to the Prime MinisterÂ’s Office, said that the Cabinet agreed in principle to review and offer relaxation to three types of visas with a two-month pilot period. The starting period will be determined by the Tourism and Sports Ministry after its study of the proper period and details.
Firstly, a single-entry visa will be allowed to be changed into a double-entry visa with travel required within six months at the same fee of Bt1,000 per person. The Cabinet also approved a re-entry permit to facilitate foreign tourists who visit ThailandÂ’s neighbouring countries to return to Thailand without making another request.

Det finns förmodligen fler orsker.
Man undrar om det blir något bestående eller enbart under två månader...?
