Thailand visa for Indonesian citizens
Indonesian citizens can stay in Thailand for 30 days without a visa when arriving on or after 15 September 2026. The day you arrive is day 1. One extension of up to 30 days is possible at an immigration office before your last day, for about 1900 baht.
No land-entry limit
Indonesia is one of four countries not subject to the twice-a-year limit on visa-free entries by land, which matters if you travel overland from Malaysia.
Planning a longer stay
For study, work or a stay beyond the visa-free days plus one extension, apply for the right visa through the official e-Visa site before you travel.
Before you fly
- Passport valid well beyond your planned stay
- Return or onward ticket and your first hotel booking, in case the officer asks
- The free TDAC arrival card, submitted in the window before you arrive
Worked example
Indonesians arriving on Tuesday, 1 December 2026 can stay until Wednesday, 30 December 2026: 30 days, counting the arrival day as day 1. With one approved extension, the last day becomes Friday, 29 January 2027. Leaving two days after the last legal day would mean an overstay fine of 1,000 baht at departure.
