The following documents are required for an Indian passport holder to apply for the Thailand visa.
- A duly filled in and signed Visa Application Form
- Original Passport that is valid for at least 6 months from the date of arrival in Thailand
- Scanned copies of confirmed return tickets
- Scanned copy of the itinerary of the trip

- Scanned copy of International Credit Card

Steps:
Here is what an applicant need to do in order to apply for the Thailand Visa Online.
- Fill in the visa application form available online.
- Take a print out of the completed application form, complete with the barcode sheet generated at the end of the application process.
- Submit the Visa Application Form as well as the Barcode Sheet in addition to all the supporting documents to the Thailand Visa Application Centre. If submitting the application in South India, the applicant is required to submit two application forms each signed separately.
Points to Remember
- All mandatory fields in the Visa Application Form should be filled in without fail.
- The completed form should necessarily be printed along with the barcode sheet.
- The application form must be duly signed.
- Indian citizens can also opt for the Visa on Arrival service. The process usually consumes 3 to 6 hours at the arrival airport in Thailand and in some cases it might prove to be cumbersome.
- Once the application is submitted along with the visa fee, it cannot be cancelled.
- The Visa Fee may change without any prior notice.
- The validity of a Thailand tourist visa ranges from 3 months to 6 months. This usually depends on the number of entries that the applicant makes via land or through air. In case the applicant visits Thailand via an International Airport, there are chances that he/she will be granted a visa of 30 or 60-days.
- In case a tourist wishes, his/her tourist visa can be extended. This can be done by filing an application at the Office of Immigration Bureau located at Soi Suan Plu, off South Sathorn Road, Bangkok 10120, Tel (662) 287-3101-10.
