Thailand expands e-Visa system to 16 new countries

Thailand has announced the expansion of its electronic visa (e-Visa) service to an additional 16 countries. The e-Visa system now covers countries in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa and Oceania, among others.

In total, e-Visa is now available in 39 countries and 59 embassies and consulates worldwide.

This initiative is primarily for foreign nationals of those countries that require a visa to travel to Thailand. Citizens of visa-free countries can also apply for an e-Visa in their home country, for example, if the trip involves a longer stay in Thailand than allowed under the country-specific visa-free entry rules.

Thus, e-Visa is available for the following 39 countries with Thai consular offices in the respective cities:

Australia: Canberra, Sydney

Austria: Vienna

Bahrain: Manama

Belgium: Brussels

Brazil: Brasilia

Cambodia: Phnom Penh

Canada: Ottawa, Vancouver
