not about the money. My friends want to travel from Bulgaria. But due to covid the consulate in Bulgaria has no right to issue tourist Visa, so they have to send their documents to Romania /Bucharest and wait for the visa for 3 weeks! Just trying to confirm if visa on arrival is an option for themReply to

Yes, both the 15 day Visa on Arrival that less than 20 nationalities qualify for (such as India and China), as well as the 30 day visa exempt entry that many more nationalities get when coming to Thailand without a visa. You likely mean Visa Exempt which is NOT the same as visa on arrival where you pay at the arrival airport to have a visa granted.

not sure if this is up to date as they constantly change the rulesPui *****

There's no change of rules for Visa on Arrival. It was restored many months ago. The changes of rules are regarding Test & Go vs Sandbox and other entry programs which have nothing to do with also needing the appropriate visa to enter. The only new visa that is possibly changing is the STV (special tourist visa) that is good for 90 days. The normal tourist visa (60 days), visa on arrival (15 days), and visa exempt (30 days for most nationalities) does not change except incredibly rarely to add or subtract a nationality.Reply to
