Thai passport holders enter Japan visa-free for up to 15 days when visiting for tourism. No fee, no advance application. Passport must be valid for the duration of your stay.

The visa is free for Thai nationals. You need a passport, application form, photo, flight itinerary, hotel bookings, bank statement, and employment letter. Processing takes 3 to 5 working days.
