Thailand Visa Application

Citizens of Bhutan

Citizens of Bhutan who wish to visit Thailand for a period not exceeding 15 days can obtain a visa (Visa on Arrival) from the designated channels of Immigration checkpoints in Thailand that provide facilities for issuance of the aforementioned visa.

Currently, Siam Legal visa services do not cover the local citizens and permanent residents of Bhutan.

Please note that you must be in possession of the following if you wish to visit Thailand:

  1. A valid passport.

    You will need a passport valid for at least 6 months following your departure date, with at least 2 remaining unused pages for any necessary entry and exit stamps that may be issued.

  2. Visa on arrival application form with recent photo (4cm x 6cm).

    The fee for the application is THB 1,000.

  3. A confirmed travel itinerary or fully-paid ticket usable within 15 days from entry date.
  4. Proof of accommodation and funds of at least THB 10,000 per person and THB 20,000 per family.

If you wish to get an extension (for Visa on arrival) and stay longer in Thailand beyond the allowed 15 days, you need to submit an application to the immigration office in Bangkok. See office details below.
