Visa on arrival for selected countries at Thai international airports

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Criteria for selecting countries? An even distribution across the English alphabet?

note 64 countries, ( most western passports) get 30 day FREE visa exempt on arrival

and this does not bypass quarantine, needing a COE Before you arrive, medical insurance, pre booked hotel quarantine booking
pre paid covid tests

Thailand just got removed from the UK's (silly) Red List, so no quarantine on return form Thailand.

With the removal of quarantine in Thailand from November 1st, Thailand just became quite user friendly for a Xmas break.

Enjoy all that pent up enthusiasm of hoards of Brits arriving...

that was cause they were giving you an extra 15 days for the quarantine you were forced to do.
quarantine is now down to 7 days
.....Previous permitted period of stay was 30 days; the extension to 45 days will be in effect until 30 September 2021

That’s actually good for Cambodia as it’s on most people’s itinerary anyway who are visiting Thailand.
I’d imagine there’s far more people who do that than just come to Cambodia only, same for Vietnam - go there pop over to the also ran Cambodia.
People of the world, spice up your life.
