TLDR : Answer Summary

If you are a U.S. citizen planning to visit Thailand for two weeks, you do not need to apply for a visa in advance. Upon arrival, you will receive a 30-day visa exemption stamp, allowing you to stay in Thailand without the need for an additional visa.

no, just come on over, get visa on arrival, but 2 weeks is about what it takes to get over a 12 hour jet lag, then the cultural adjustment, it's then time to go home.

My 1st trip was 2 weeks, stayed 4.

It’s not Visa on Arrival, it’s Visa Exempt. No visa.

There's no conflicting information. If you have a US passport you can get a 30 day visa exempt stamp if you arrive without a visa
