Thailand grants 60-day visa exemption on arrival to passport holders from more than 90 countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, EU states, Australia, Japan, South Korea, China and India, which covers most TMOX business visitors attending meetings at BITEC. Nationalities outside the exemption list can apply for a Thai e-Visa through thaievisa.go.th (THB 1,000 single entry, THB 5,000 multiple entry) or use the THB 2,000 Visa on Arrival counter at Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang if their passport is eligible. Carry a passport valid for at least six months, proof of onward travel and a hotel booking; exemption stays can be extended once at a Thai immigration office and exhibitors performing paid work should hold a Non-Immigrant B visa.
Estimated cost: Varies by visa type and nationality (check official site).
