Thailand to Bosnia and Herzegovina visa requirements

Thai passport holders need a visa to visit Bosnia and Herzegovina for tourism. Thailand is not on Bosnia's visa-exempt list, so a short-stay (Type C) visa must be obtained from a Bosnian embassy or consulate before travel. One key exception: if you hold a valid multiple-entry Schengen, EU, or US visa or residence permit, you may enter Bosnia visa-free for up to 30 days. As of 2026, Bosnia and Herzegovina does not grant visa-free entry to ordinary Thailand passport holders. Thailand is absent from Bosnia's visa-exemption list (which covers EU/Schengen nationals plus countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Turkey, Russia, Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE and others). Thai nationals must therefore apply for a short-stay (Type C / tourist) visa in advance from a Bosnian diplomatic mission, as Bosnia operates no general eVisa or visa-on-arrival scheme for Thai citizens. There is one significant shortcut: holders of a valid multiple-entry Schengen, EU member-state, or United States visa or residence permit may enter Bosnia visa-free for a maximum of 30 days. Bosnia and Herzegovina is NOT a member of the Schengen Area and is not an EU member state, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply to entering Bosnia itself; the standard authorized short stay under a Bosnian short-stay visa or under the third-country-visa waiver is up to 90 days within any 180-day period (30 days when relying on a third-country visa/permit). Travelers should apply at the nearest Bosnian embassy or honorary consulate, as Bosnia has limited representation in Southeast Asia and applications may be processed through a regional mission (for example in another country) or via an honorary consulate.
