Questions
Do I need a tourist e-Visa?
Not if your passport enters visa-free for the whole stay. Use the free visa check on our home page or your nationality guide first.
TR or METV?
The single-entry TR covers one trip of up to 60 days. The multiple-entry METV covers several trips in 6 months and asks for more proof of funds and proof of employment or business.
How much money must I show?
At least 20,000 THB per traveller for the TR. For the METV, statements for the last 6 months with at least 200,000 THB.
Who checks my documents?
Software compares your documents with the rules for your visa and your embassy. Then a person reads the report and corrects it before you get it, within 6 hours.
Do you apply for me?
No. You apply and pay the government fee on thaievisa.go.th yourself. We check your documents first. We never ask for your e-Visa password.
Can you promise my visa is approved?
No. Only the embassy decides, and it does not give reasons. We check that your documents are complete and current. There is no refund because a visa is refused; you get a full refund if your reviewed report is later than 24 hours.
Already have your visa? Your arrival card is next.
Every foreign traveller must file the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) in the 72 hours before arrival. Let TDAC.info file it for you: a person checks every field and you get the QR code by e-mail.
