Planning a trip to Thailand in 2025? Here are crucial updates about new entry requirements. The Thai government’s Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) program, initially set to be implemented by June 2025, has been delayed accommodating the introduction of the Digital Arrival Card (TM6) by May 1st, 2025. This new digital system aims to replace the old paper arrival card and will be accessible via an app. Key points for travelers include the visa exemption for passport holders from 93 countries, steps to follow if traveling before or after May 1st, and the necessity to stay updated on entry requirements. Stay informed by subscribing for the latest travel updates.<\/p>
