Thailand is a constitutional monarchy. Most of the population is Buddhist and ethnically Thai. Standard Thai is the official language of Thailand and is spoken in every province, though many areas also have a local dialect. Most Thais working in the tourist industry and in businesses dealing with foreigners can speak at least rudimentary English. Thailand is a popular travel destination, and tourist facilities and services are available throughout the country. At many tourist attractions, including national parks, foreigners are charged admission fees up to ten times higher than those charged to Thais
Visitors staying for fewer than 30 days do not require a visa, but must possess a passport and may be asked to show an onward/return ticket. Travelers must pay a Passenger Service Charge in Thai baht when departing from any of Thailand’s international airports.
When a traveller enters the country, Thai Immigration stamps in his or her passport the date on which the traveller’s authorized stay in Thailand will expire. Any traveller remaining in Thailand beyond this date without having received an official extension will be assessed an immediate cash fine when departing Thailand. Any foreigner found by police to be out of legal status prior to departure will be jailed, fined, and then deported at his or her own expense, and may be barred from re-entering Thailand.
Thailand’s Entry/Exit information is subject to change without notice. For further information on Thailand’s entry/exit requirements, contact the Royal Thai Embassy http://www.thaiembdc.org/index.htm
