Most business visitors from the EU, UK, US, Canada, Australia, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and India enter Thailand visa-exempt for up to 60 days on arrival, which comfortably covers the 3–5 November 2026 show plus travel time. Every arrival must submit the free Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) online within three days of departure and carry onward-ticket and accommodation details. Nationalities outside the exemption list can apply through the thaievisa.go.th e-Visa portal for a single-entry tourist visa, usually issued in 5–10 working days; exhibitor staff signing contracts or staying longer should use a Non-Immigrant B visa. Thailand does not operate the ATA Carnet system, so exhibits and samples move under a Thai Customs temporary import deposit.
Estimated cost: Varies by visa type and nationality (check official site).
Processing: Varies by nationality; apply several weeks before travel.
Extendable once by 30 days at a Thai immigration office for THB 1,900. Paid employment requires a work permit, and the free Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) must be completed online within three days of travel. Valid for 60 days from entry and extendable by 30 days. Apply only through the official government portal; commercial visa agencies are not required for e-Visa submission.
