As of April 30, 2025, travelers planning to visit Thailand should be aware of several important advisories and new entry requirements.
Starting tomorrow, May 1, 2025, all foreign nationals entering Thailand by air, land, or sea must complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card, known as TDAC, within three days before arrival. This electronic requirement is mandatory, and failure to comply could result in denial of entry.
Additionally, beginning in June 2025, all foreigners traveling to Thailand under the visa exemption scheme will be required to enroll in the new Electronic Travel Authorization system. This measure is being implemented alongside the Thai government's expansion of visa exemption programs to include more nationalities, aimed at better tracking foreign visitors.
Safety-wise, Thailand generally remains a level-1 country according to the U.S. State Department, which recommends exercising normal precautions. However, travelers should reconsider visits to the southern provinces of Yala, Pattani, Narathiwat, and Songkhla due to civil unrest associated with ongoing insurgent activities.
In terms of safety rankings, Thailand currently sits at 76th out of 163 countries on the Global Peace Index, an improvement from its 92nd place in 2023. The country receives good marks for having few external conflicts but poorer ratings for its high incarceration rate.
Water safety is particularly important for Thailand visitors. Strong currents can be deadly, especially during monsoon season from June to October. Always heed local safety signs, avoid swimming when red flags are posted, and only participate in water activities with licensed operators.
For transportation, choose official taxis or public transportation when possible. Avoid overcrowded buses and minivans, and be cautious about motorbike taxis, which are frequently involved in accidents due to inexperienced drivers. If renting vehicles, always wear appropriate safety gear, avoid driving at night, and ensure you have an International Driving Permit along with proper insurance.
The main emergency number in Thailand is 191, or 112 from mobile phones. Comprehensive travel insurance covering medical emergencies, accidents, and theft is strongly recommended for all visitors.
By staying informed through official government advisories and respecting local laws and customs, you can help ensure a safe and enjoyable trip to Thailand in 2025.
