Just woundering im going to thailand for the very time for 2 weeks i got a uk passport .do need a visa
Answer summary
As a UK passport holder visiting Thailand for the first time for two weeks, you do not need a visa. You can enter Thailand on a visa exemption, which allows you to stay for 30 days without charge. If you wish to extend your stay beyond 30 days, you'll need to apply for an appropriate visa in advance.

Put a pen in your hand luggage, that way you can fill in the arrival/departure card before landing. Getting through passport control can sometimes take quite a long time so any amount of time you can save will be beneficial.

You can enter on visa exempt, which is not a visa on arrival, you as a UK citizen don't qualify for visa on arrival. 30 days free of charge, if you need longer you can obtain a visa beforehand. The visa exempt stamp is awarded when you queue to show your passport at immigration.
