Jaipur, (Rajasthan) [India], 6th May, 2025: As Thailand strengthens its position as a top leisure destination for Indians, digital visa platform Visament has introduced a structured support system aimed at simplifying the Thailand visa for Indians.
The move comes amid a significant rise in outbound travel from India to Thailand. India recently became the third-largest source market for Thai tourism, following the country’s decision to extend visa-free entry for Indian tourists until November 2024. Despite the relaxed policy, many travelers still require a visa for longer stays, work-related travel, or multiple entries, prompting concerns over unclear procedures and inconsistent information.
Visament’s latest offering addresses these issues by guiding users through a step-by-step digital process. The platform outlines required documents, timelines, and submission formats, while also providing access to live support. The goal, according to sources familiar with the rollout, is to reduce administrative hurdles for travelers still navigating the visa system.
According to Thailand’s Ministry of Tourism and Sports, over 2.1 million Indian tourists visited Thailand in 2024, nearly doubling year-on-year traffic. The demand has been met with an expansion in direct flight connectivity from major Indian cities to Bangkok, Phuket, and Krabi. However, not all Indian travelers qualify for visa exemption, especially those with non-tourist itineraries or extended travel plans, creating persistent demand for structured visa services.
With more Indians opting to apply for a Thailand visa online, the lack of standardized guidance has often led to errors, rejected applications, or unnecessary delays. Industry observers say platforms that demystify the process could play a critical role in supporting outbound travel, particularly as Thailand eyes long-term engagement with the Indian market.
Travel agencies also report a steady increase in queries related to visa categories, appointment scheduling, and documentation. A lack of centralized information often pushes travelers toward expensive intermediaries or unverified sources. In this context, digital solutions offering clarity and accountability are likely to see growing relevance.
As Thailand continues to capitalize on its popularity among Indian travelers, efforts to streamline visa access—whether through government waivers or third-party facilitation—are expected to influence travel patterns well into 2025.
