Has the 60-day visa exemption for certain countries been reverted to 30 days in Thailand?
Does anyone out there know has the 60 day visa exemption for the 90 odd countries that got it extended gone back to 30 days yet?
Answer summary
The current status of the 60-day visa exemption for approximately 90 countries is still valid, as there has been no official change back to the 30-day period. While some discussions suggest an imminent change, most comments confirm that the 60-day exemption remains in place for now. Confirmation of any changes will be published in the Royal Gazette, after which there will be a 15-day notice period before implementation. For the latest updates, users are advised to check official sources or the Thai embassy.

Max Murray he suggested using search function, that's good advice. OR look on Thai embassy website. It has the visa and exempt entry info.

Just goggle , "visa excempt for Thailand how many days" and it says from Thai Embassy " depending on nationality visitors can remain in Thailand for up to 60 days. Further the tatnews states that the 60 days will end with revised entry conditions that will take effect after the Royal Gazette notice. As of today not in the Gazette yet.
