Good to know

Common questions about Thailand visa applications

How long can I stay in Thailand on a tourist visa?
The Thailand tourist visa allows a maximum stay of 60 days per visit. A single-entry tourist visa is valid for 3 months from the issue date and costs $40 in consulate fees. A double-entry tourist visa is valid for 3 to 6 months and costs $80. If you need longer access or plan to re-enter, call us at (310) 402-1619 and we will confirm the right visa type for your itinerary.
Do I need a flight itinerary to apply for a Thailand tourist visa?
No. A confirmed flight itinerary is helpful but not required for the Thailand tourist visa. If you have a booking, include it — it can support your application. If your travel dates are not yet finalized, you can still proceed without it. We review your full package at our counter before anything is submitted.
What invitation letter is required for a Thailand business visa?
The Thailand business visa requires an invitation letter from the Thai company you are visiting, written on official company letterhead. A copy is acceptable — an original is not required. The letter should state your name, the purpose of your visit, and the expected duration. Bring it to our office and we will confirm it meets the consulate's requirements before submission.
What is the difference between the Thailand business visa and the work visa?
Both the business visa and the work visa require an invitation letter on Thai company letterhead. The business visa covers meetings, conferences, and commercial activities. The work visa is for applicants taking up employment in Thailand and typically requires a work permit issued by Thai labor authorities after arrival. Call us at (310) 402-1619 and we will confirm which category fits your situation before you apply.
Can I apply for a Thailand visa by mail from outside Los Angeles?
Yes. Download and complete the Thailand visa application form, then mail it to us with your passport, ID copy, visa photo, and any additional documents for your visa type. Include a completed Service Order Form so we can reach you if anything needs clarifying. We handle the consulate submission and return your passport via FedEx. Call us at (310) 402-1619 before mailing to confirm the current turnaround time.
Passport not ready for the trip?

A Thailand visa is issued against the passport you hold now. If yours expires within six months of departure or has no blank page, Sameday Passport & Visa can renew it first and then file the visa against the new book.
