Hi. Im going to Thailand on October and I’m from Colombia, just wanted to know what are they asking in immigration at the bangkok airport for the Arrival Visa (my country was recently added to the Excent visa). If someone can give me info I will appreciate it 😊
Answer summary
Colombian passport holders can enter Thailand without an arrival visa and are eligible for a 60-day visa-exempt entry. However, they must present proof of onward travel to their air carrier. Upon arrival, Thai immigration typically does not require additional documentation beyond the passport stamp. Those traveling from Colombia are advised to have evidence of a Yellow Fever vaccination, and recent regulations also stipulate that travelers must register on the Thai health pass website prior to departure. Expect a monkeypox screening at the airport as well.

If arriving from Colombia, you'll need to register on

and expect a monkeypox screening at the airport. Yellow fever vaccination proof is also required. No idea if medical exemptions are recognized but whatever documentation you have must now be provided in electronic format before departure and submitted using the app/website.

You might need a yellow fever vax card or test certificate of sorts. My wife entered with her Peruvian passport and was asked for yellow fever proof / test certificate even though we don't live in Peru.. We had to prove we didn't fly from Peru with our flight itinerary and other passports and residency cards..

Not sure whether you will be asked, but if youve been in Columbia in the last six months, you legally need proof of Yellow Fever vacination to enter Thailand along with what Tod said.

There is no "arrival visa" for Colombian passport holders 😮

You can show up without having bought a visa from the thai consulate before you come here and get stamped in FREE for 60 days on "visa exempt" entry.

Your AIR CARRIER might require you to show proof of onward travel (within the number of days you'll get stamped in for here) but as a rule Thai immigrations at passport control won't ask you for anything when you stamp in here

Wow!

It was 30 days at the arrival and you could extend it another 30 days. Now 60 days at the airport and plus 30 days extension if you want?

Maybe it was 30 day free entry for your country
@Sesin *********
BUT it was most definitely NOT 30 days at arrival for Colombian passport holders 🙁

Before the 15th of July people with a passport from that country had to BUY a visa to thailand from a consulate before they showed up here

Now they are on the list (along with 90+ other countries) that get free entry for 60 days

these countries get stamped in FREE entry for 60 days and can get one 30 day extension at the immigration office for 1900baht after they're here
