do i need a visa to go to thailand?

Answer 1

When in doubt, contact their embassy.

Answer 2

If you live in the U.S. you do not need a Visa to go to Thailand. I just had a friend that came back from there this week.

Also, she did not need any shots to go there but highly recommends a Hepititas A shot. She definitely got sick off the food as it's very different than what we eat in the U.S. The water is not good there either so be prepared. She said the humidity was the worse part of the visit. Very Very Bad.

Just in case your interested she also found out when buying stuff over there to get away from the 'tourist' areas and you get much better deals than you would otherwise. She said things away from the tourist area is really cheap. And you can haggle over the prices.

Hope this helps and enjoy your visit!!!

Answer 3

When you arrive at the airport you can get a thirty day visa and get it extended for another fifteen days in country. If you want more time you need a sixty day visa before you go which can be extended for another thirty days in country
Also after your first thirty day stay you can go to Cambodia on a one day bus trip and come back with another thirty day visa. These trips are daily and advertised in The Bangkok Post under 'Tours and Travel' and cost about US$50 which is about the same as a fifteen day extension in country (I did it five times in a row))
