Free Tourist Visas Between June 25, 2009 And March 2010

this from thaivisa.com, in an earlier blog I made mention of free visa's, this is the news, continuing its efforts to expedite the revival of the Thai travel and tourism industry, the Royal Thai government has agreed to exempt the fee for tourist visa applications, effective 25 June 2009 to March 2010. All foreigners who apply for Tourist Visa at the Royal Thai Embassies and the Royal Thai Consulates-General worldwide will be exempted from tourist visa fee from 25 June 2009 to March B.E.2553 (2010). Such arrangement is for Tourist Visa single entry only. Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Bangkok 2009-06-24.

    Hi Stan,

    I presume this doesn't effect the basic 30 day entry & exit tourist visa, which is FOC after completing the form handed out on the plane flying to BKK?

    Dear Anonymous, I think it refers to the 60 day visa that you can then extend for a further 30 days, but the visa laws out here are for me so complex for further verification I would go to thaivisa.com to be 100% sure what this new announcement means, sorry to not be of more help, best regards, Stan and Diana.
