Do I need to apply for a visa?

It is possible to request an extension of stay of up to 30 additional days from the Thai immigration authorities. However, this extension is not automatic and remains subject to approval by the authorities.

Stay of more than 30 days

If you plan to stay in Thailand for more than 30 days , it is advisable to apply for a tourist visa (TR) before your trip. The application is made online through the official Thai e-Visa system.

The single-entry tourist visa allows a stay of 60 days from arrival in Thailand and can be extended locally for an additional 30 days , at an immigration office, currently for 1,900 baht.

This visa is for single entry only and expires as soon as you leave Thailand, even if the authorized stay period has not yet ended. Your passport must be valid for at least six months. Supporting documents, including proof of onward travel, sufficient funds, and accommodation, may also be required.

For detailed conditions and required documents, please consult the official website of the Royal Thai Embassy or the website of the Thai embassy in your country of residence.

Are there any specific vaccines or treatments to take ?

There is no need for specific vaccines, although it is better to be up to date with your standard vaccines (DTP). Vaccines for hepatitis A and B are a plus. Antimalarial treatment is useless and can spoil your stay.

It is advisable to bring the quantity for any specific treatments for the entire duration of your stay, as well as your doctor's prescription. On site, you will find pharmacies and English-speaking doctors for minor problems (colds, etc.). It is best to have some basic care with you for greater comfort (fever, disinfectant, dressing, treatment for diarrhea).

Be careful of the sun and the heat, drink enough water to avoid dehydration in the event of physical exertion. And if you are going on a long stay, this can be an opportunity for a small general check-up (teeth, eyesight, etc.) a few months before, to give you peace of mind once you are on vacation.

What to do in case of illness or injury ?

First of all, talk about it, don't stay as if everything is fine. You can of course notify us, but it is the people on site who will be useful and who must be notified: Eric or Sopa, the accommodation staff, a person with whom you have an affinity... We will direct you to a pharmacy or a doctor, or even the hospital if the problem is serious, and they will help you if you have difficulty explaining what you have. Healthcare in Thailand is good (but not free). And of course don't force yourself to resume activities as quickly as possible, but listen to the doctor's advice on rest.
