Qatari passport holders enter Thailand visa-free for up to 60 days (extended from 30 days in 2024). No fee, no advance application. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry. At Suvarnabhumi (BKK) or Don Mueang (DMK) in Bangkok, or Phuket (HKT) and Chiang Mai (CNX), you receive a stamp at immigration. Have a return ticket and proof of accommodation accessible, as officers occasionally ask.

The 60-day visa-free stay can be extended once for 30 days (90 days total) at any Thai Immigration Bureau office for THB 1,900 (about QAR 195). Bring your passport, a photo, and the completed TM.7 form. Thailand also offers a Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) for digital nomads and remote workers, valid for 180 days (THB 10,000). No proof of funds is formally checked at the airport for visa-free entry, but the guideline is THB 20,000 per person or THB 40,000 per family.
