Do Singapore passport holders need a visa to visit Thailand?

Visa-free up to 30 days (TR30) under ASEAN agreement. TDAC mandatory online before arrival. Singapore ordinary passport holders enter Thailand visa-free for up to 30 days per entry under the ASEAN mutual visa exemption agreement. Thailand reduced its general visa-free stay from 60 to 30 days in May 2025, but ASEAN partners including Singapore retain 30-day entries with the option to extend in-country by 30 more days at an immigration office for THB 1,900. The Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) became mandatory in May 2025 for all foreign visitors and must be submitted online within 72 hours before arrival. Multiple entries are permitted, but total visa-free days within a 6-month period are capped at 180.
