Visa & Entry (Updated May 2026)

Do I need a visa as an Indian citizen?No. As of early 2026, Indian passport holders can enter Thailand visa-free for up to 60 days for tourism. You no longer need to pay the 2,000 THB fee or queue for a Visa on Arrival.

The Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) is a mandatory online form that replaced the old paper arrival cards. You must complete it within 72 hours before your arrival to receive a QR code for immigration.

Is travel insurance mandatory?

While not strictly mandatory for visa-exempt entry, it is highly recommended. Private medical care in Thailand is expensive, and many tour operators require it for island activities.

What proof of funds is required?

Immigration officers may randomly ask to see proof of funds. It is recommended to carry 10,000 THB per person or 20,000 THB per family in cash or show a recent bank statement.

Is the National Park Fee included?

Typically, the 400 THB (Adult) / 200 THB (Child) fee for the Phi Phi Islands National Park is not included in the package price and must be paid in cash directly to the rangers on the island.

Can I swim at Maya Bay?

You can walk on the beach and take photos, but swimming is prohibited inside the bay to protect the coral. Swimming and snorkeling usually take place at nearby Pileh Lagoon or Bamboo Island.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Speedboat tours to Phi Phi are weather-dependent. If the captain deems the sea unsafe (common during the monsoon tail-end), the tour may be rescheduled or replaced with a land-based Phuket tour.

Which hotels will I stay in?

The standard package includes 3-star accommodations like PJ Patong Resortel, Hallo Patong, or The Frutta Boutique.

What should I wear to temples?

For the Big Buddha and Wat Chalong, you must cover your shoulders and knees. Carry a sarong or light scarf to wrap around if you are wearing shorts or sleeveless tops.

Is the SIM card really free?

Yes, a Thailand SIM card with 4G data is included and will be handed over by your airport representative upon arrival.
