Can we apply together on one application?

No, each person needs a separate e-Visa application and pays separately, even if married. You can apply simultaneously from the same computer.

What if we have different nationalities with different visa requirements?

Apply for what each passport requires. One partner might get visa-free entry while the other needs a tourist visa. Time your travel so both are valid.

Do we need to show proof we're together?

Marriage certificate helps but isn't required for visa applications. Joint hotel bookings and mentioning each other in applications usually suffices.

Can we extend our visas once in Thailand?

Yes, tourist visas can be extended once for 30 days at any immigration office for 1,900 baht per person. Visa-exempt entries can also be extended once for 30 days.

How to Get Visas for Thailand as a Couple

Most couples can enter Thailand visa-free for 30 days (60 days for many nationalities as of 2024), or apply for a 60-day tourist visa online through the e-Visa system. Both partners apply separately but can coordinate timing and documents.

Check if you need visas at all. Citizens of 64 countries get 30-day visa exemption, extended to 60 days in 2024 for many nationalities including US, UK, Germany, Australia. Check Thailand's embassy website for your specific passports. If you're from different countries, check both.
Choose your visa type. Tourist visa (TR): 60 days, extendable once for 30 more days. Cost: $40 USD. Multiple entry tourist visa: $200 USD, valid 6 months with 60-day stays. Apply for the same type so your stays align.
Gather documents for both applicants. Each person needs: valid passport (6+ months), passport photo (4x6cm), completed application form, flight bookings, hotel bookings for first few nights, bank statements showing $700+ per person, proof of relationship (marriage certificate or joint bookings).
Apply online through e-Visa system. Go to thaievisa.go.th. Create separate accounts for each person. Upload documents, pay $40 fee per person by credit card. Processing takes 3-15 business days. You can apply from the same household simultaneously.
Coordinate your applications. Submit applications on the same day. Use the same hotel bookings and travel dates in both applications. Reference each other in the 'purpose of visit' section: 'Traveling with spouse/partner [name]'.
Print and travel. Once approved, print both e-Visas. Bring printed copies to the airport and Thai immigration. Show proof of relationship if asked. Immigration stamps you in for 60 days each.
