Hello! Please could I get some reassurance, my family and I are visiting Thailand on 22nd January for 33 days until 25th February as tourists from the UK. I believe we don't need a visa for this as it is now up to 60 days? Am I correct in thinking this? Panicking a bit as there's lots of conflicting info online. Thanks so much xx

TLDR : Answer Summary

UK tourists visiting Thailand can stay for up to 60 days without a visa. A user inquired about their upcoming trip for 33 days from 22nd January to 25th February and expressed confusion due to conflicting information online. Comments clarified that indeed, they do not need a visa for this duration, as they will receive a stamp upon arrival granting them 60 days.

Aside from the fact that 22 Jan until 25 Feb is 35 days and not 33, you are correct, you get 60 days visa exemption upon arrival and so you don't need a visa.

The Thai website might be out of date but the uk one won’t be. If you google entry requirements for Thailand the gov.uk website will tell you the correct info. 60 days no visa for a tourist.

When you ask here the only information you get is conflicting!

Why not ask the Thai embassy in your country?

Or your airline?

And yes, you get 60 days visa exemption when you arrive!

Don’t leave your boarding pass on the airplane. Immigration will ask to see it.

May not be conflicting but may well be out of date. Regulations change quicker than, particularly government, websites get updated. So it's wise to view the government website then come somewhere like this to confirm people's recent experience.

Correct. UK is visa free for tourism for 60 days. You will get a stamp in your passport with the entry date and an exit date.
