Most travelers to Thailand also need a tourist visa, but this can vary depending on your nationality and the length of your stay. It’s advisable to check with the Thai embassy or consulate in your home country for the most up-to-date visa requirements.

Remember to keep all these documents in a secure, easily accessible place to avoid any inconveniences during your adventure in the Land of Smiles.
