Kuwaiti travelers planning a trip to Thailand should be aware of a new requirement starting December 1, 2024. To enter the country, you will need to apply for an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA), a step Thailand is taking to boost border security and streamline the entry process.
Easy and Free Application Process
The ETA application is entirely digital and free, making it simple for Kuwaitis to comply. Whether you’re visiting for leisure, shopping, or to relax on Thailand's stunning beaches, the ETA allows you to stay in the country for up to 60 days, with an option to extend your visit for another 30 days.
How to Apply for the ETA
Kuwaitis can apply for the ETA through Thailand’s official e-Visa website, ensuring a hassle-free process before your journey. Upon arrival, travelers will benefit from automated immigration clearance gates, which promise faster and more efficient entry into the country.
Timeline for Implementation
This new system will start as a pilot program in December 2024 and is expected to be fully operational by June 2025. If Thailand is on your travel agenda, make sure to secure your ETA in advance for a smooth vacation experience.
