Apply for your Thailand e-visa.

You pay one Venelas fee to prepare, check and submit your application, shown in full before you pay, plus the government fee, which is set by the embassy handling it. Both are shown on their own lines, and no fee is added after you start.

You need Thailand e-visa to travel to Thailand unless your passport is exempt. Many passports enter Thailand without a visa. If you are unsure, check the current rules on the official site before you apply.

Your passport, passport photo, bank statement, an email address for the result, and your trip dates.

Thailand e-visa is for short visits: tourism, seeing family and friends, business meetings, and, where the rules allow, transit. It does not permit paid work or long-term study. If your trip is not covered, you may instead need a Thai visa. The exact conditions are set by Thailand's authorities.

We submit your application as soon as it is ready. The official processing time is published on the government site.

It is valid up to 90 days. You can usually stay up to 60 days.

Your passport must be valid for your whole trip, and many destinations ask for at least six months’ validity beyond your arrival date. Check the current rule for Thailand on the official site; we flag it if your dates look short.

Transit rules vary by nationality and route. If you will only pass through Thailand on the way somewhere else, check whether an authorisation is required on the official site; we prepare the one your trip needs.

Yes. One Venelas application can carry several travellers, and we prepare each person’s authorisation. In most cases every traveller needs their own, including children.

Venelas prepares, checks and submits your application to Thailand's authorities. Venelas is a private company owned by Opaige Inc, not a government agency. The decision to grant or refuse the authorisation is made solely by Thailand's authorities.

Tell us before we submit and we correct it at no cost. Once Thailand's authorities have issued Thailand e-visa, changes are made through them, not through Venelas.

When the decision is made, we send it to the email address on your application, and it stays in your Venelas account so you can find it any time.

Your details are sent over an encrypted connection and kept private, never sold. We store them so your next application takes about a minute.

The most common cause is incomplete or inconsistent information, which is why we read every field against the official form before we submit. The decision rests with Thailand's authorities. If it is refused, your Venelas fee comes back to you; the government fee belongs to the destination.
