Hello,

Are there any Mexican nationals who have traveled to Thailand recently who can share their experience with getting a visa upon arrival? Is it required…I’m seeing different things online.
Answer summary
Mexican nationals no longer require a visa on arrival to enter Thailand since July 2024. Upon arrival, they can obtain a 60-day visa exemption stamp simply by presenting their passport at passport control. This process is more efficient than applying for a Visa on Arrival, which costs 2000 baht for only a 15-day stay.

Los mexicanos no necesitan visa on arrival desde julio de 2024 (antes sí). Ahora, con solo el pasaporte, al llegar, te sellan un permiso de estadía con exención de visa por 60 días. Dentro de Tailandia se puede extender a 30 días más (90 en total), pero hay que pagar. La visa on arrival aún sigue siendo obligatoria para OTROS países, y para ellos, en el aeropuerto se hace una fila diferente, hay que llenar unos papeles, entregar una foto tamaño pasaporte y pagar 1.900 o 2.000 (no recuerdo) bath en efectivo. O sea, lo mismo que tenían que hacer los mexicanos hasta antes de julio.

Mexicans are in fact eligible for a 15-day Visa on Arrival, but it would be a waste of time and money. That's because Mexicans are also eligible for a 60 day visa exempt currently.

Do not go to the visa on arrival counter in the airport unless you want to pay 2000 baht for a 15 day visa. Instead proceed directly to passport control for the 60 day visa exempt stamp (not a visa, just an entry stamp).
