Thailand introduces new multiple entry tourist visa

Thailand now offers foreign visitors a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) to facilitate ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) integration and to boost Thailand’s tourism industry.

The Multiple Entry Tourist Visa can be obtained from the Royal Thai Embassies and Consulates worldwide. The six-month METV, costing 5,000 Baht, grants travellers unlimited border crossings for up to 60 days per stay within the visa validity.

Requirements for the METV Applications: in addition to the required documents for a tourist visa, applicants for the METV must provide the following supporting documents:

  5. Copy of bank statements or evidence of adequate finances in the last six months with a minimum balance equivalent to 200,000 Baht (every month).
  6. Letter of Employment. For those who are self-employed, a business license or business registration indicating the applicant’s name.
  7. For students, proof of full-time student status.
  8. Copy of an air ticket, e-ticket or proof of itinerary (for the first visit to the Kingdom minimum).
