The Ministry of Foreign Affairs plans to propose reducing the visa-free stay for foreign tourists in Thailand from 60 days to 30 days to address security concerns and prevent abuse of the current policy. The change would allow for a 30-day stay with the option to extend for another 30 days through standard immigration procedures. The move is not discriminatory but aims to curb activities like online scams and illegal employment. Thailand seeks to balance tourism and security while maintaining its status as a competitive tourist destination. Industry representatives are monitoring the situation closely.
