Thailand to cut visa-free stay for tourists from over 60 countries to 30 days from Sept 15
Thailand will reduce the visa-free stay period for tourists from more than 60 countries and territories to 30 days, effective September 15. The move is aimed at curbing crime by foreign nationals, though tourism is vital to the country's economy. Visitors from Peru, Brazil and South Korea will see their visa-free stays extended to 90 days.
