Non-US Residents: You must provide proof of international travel insurance meeting
GIVE’s requirements and insuring your total trip cost (and flight, if preferred).
If you’d like to purchase from a different provider, then you must confirm you are aware
of our coverage requirements and that your policy meets those requirements. Note that
your insurance coverage must include trip cancellation and interruption.
Visa:
There are a few different options for visas, so read below. Depending on your citizenship,
you may be exempt from obtaining a visa, can receive one on arrival, or order prior to
departure.
1. Tourist Visa Exemption (if traveling in Thailand less than 30 days)
If you are a US citizen or a citizen of one of the countries listed below, you do
not need to obtain a visa as you fall into the Tourist Visa Exemption category. In
this case, you are required to:
1. Provide Proof of Onward Travel: bring proof of confirmed air, train,
bus, or boat tickets showing you will leave Thailand within 30 days
from your arrival date. If you cannot provide proof, you will have to
obtain a tourist visa (which is outlined below).
2. Provide Proof of Finances: Thailand requires travelers to have proof
of adequate finances for the duration of your stay when you enter into
the country, such as a traveler’s check or cash equivalent to 10,000
Baht (approx. $300 USD) per person and 20,000 Baht (approx. $600
USD) per family. A screenshot of your bank statement would be
sufficient.
3. You may need an address in Thailand and, if so, write “Eco Resort
Chiang Mai, 109 Bumrungrad Rd. Watkate, Muang Chiang
Mai 50000 Thailand”
