Thailand has reversed a plan to end visa-free entry for Indian travelers. Under the new decision, Indian visitors will be allowed thirty-day visa-exempt entries into the country.

The reversal follows a recent decline in tourist arrivals from India, which has impacted Thailand's tourism sector. The Thai government's decision to maintain visa-free access aims to align with Indian tourist travel patterns and encourage increased visitor numbers to the country.

Previously, Indian tourists had been granted sixty days of visa-free entry to Thailand. The shift to a thirty-day visa-exempt period represents a modification of existing arrangements, though the country remains committed to facilitating travel from India without requiring advance visa applications.
