Thailand pairs effortless hospitality with extraordinary cuisine, tropical islands, vibrant culture, and some of Asia's most beautiful resorts. It is an ideal destination for combining cultural discovery with sophisticated relaxation.

U.S. travelers can generally visit Thailand visa-free for stays of up to 60 days, but a pre-arrival online registration is required.

Pack lightweight clothing, comfortable shoes, swimwear, and sun protection. Bring modest clothing for temples, where shoulders and knees should be covered.

November through February generally offers the most comfortable conditions across much of Thailand. Regional weather varies, particularly for the islands.

No routine vaccinations are required for travelers arriving from the U.S. Yellow fever vaccination is required only in certain circumstances, such as arrival from a yellow-fever-risk country.
