Overview

Single-entry tourist visa for Thailand allowing 60 days of stay, extendable to 90 days total.

Thailand's Single-Entry Tourist Visa (TR) is a structured legal framework for leisure visitors to stay beyond visa-exemption windows. Administered under the Immigration Act of 1979, this visa bridges the 30-day exemption and long-term non-immigrant visas, serving travelers needing 60 days for cultural immersion, exploration, or extended holidays.

The visa grants 60 days of stay (extendable to 90 total). Fees are 1,000 THB per entry with 1–5 business day processing via e-Visa or embassy. A minimum of 20,000 THB savings is required. No work authorization applies. The visa is single-entry only; re-entry requires a new application. It may bridge to Non-Immigrant B or ED visas but does not lead to permanent residency.

This visa is ideal for leisure travelers and digital nomads seeking 60–90 days in Thailand for tourism without employment, who need more time than a visa-exempt entry allows.
