The Thai Embassy in New Delhi on Wednesday announced that E-Visa will be rolled out for Indian passport holders from January 1.
The Embassy said the 60-day visa exemption for tourism and short business purposes for Indian ordinary passport holders remains effective 'until further announcement'.
The statement issued by the Embassy said: "Applicants, non-Thai nationals, must apply for all types of visas at the website https://www.thaievisa.go.th."
The Embassy said people can submit their applications themselves or via a representative.
The Embassy said: "Applicants must choose to pay a visa fee for which the respective Embassy and Consulate-Generals will provide details on the offline payment options."
The Embassy confirmed that the visa will be processed within 14 working days from the date of the receipt of the visa fee.
What is the deadline for the regular visa application under the current system:
Ordinary passport applications submitted at the designated visa processing companies will be accepted until 16 December 2024.
Diplomatic and official passport applications submitted at the Embassy or Consulate-General will be accepted until 24 December 2024.
