We’ve reviewed our advice for Thailand and continue to advise exercise a high degree of caution overall. We now advise do not travel to areas within 10 kilometres of the Thailand-Cambodia land border in the provinces of Sa Kaeo, Buriram, Si Saket, Surin, Ubon Ratchathani, Chanthaburi and mainland Trat due to armed clashes between Thai and Cambodian forces, which included military strikes and violence, and the presence of landmines (see ‘Safety’).

You can get a visa exemption (visa-free entry) to stay for up to 60 days for tourism and short-term business travel. Check the latest visa, entry and exit requirements with the nearest Embassy or consulate of Thailand (see ‘Travel’).

There’s an ongoing risk of terrorism. Popular tourist areas may be the target of terrorist attacks anywhere across Thailand. We continue to advise reconsider your need to travel to Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat provinces.

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in Thailand overall due to security and safety risks. 

Higher levels apply in some areas.
