Our guide to the Thailand visa from Paraguay

Yes, Paraguayan citizens need a visa for a tourist trip to Thailand. Paraguay is not on the list of visa-exempt countries in force since 15 September 2026. The visa must be obtained before departure through Thailand's official e-Visa platform.

Thailand overhauled its entry schemes on 15 September 2026: the 60-day exemption was abolished and the 30-day tourist exemption now applies to 60 countries and territories only, a list that does not include Paraguay. Ordinary passport holders therefore need a visa before boarding.

Do I need a visa?

Yes. Since the revision took effect on 15 September 2026, Paraguayan citizens are not covered by any tourist exemption, nor by visa on arrival, which is now limited to Azerbaijan, Belarus and Serbia. Information still circulating about 60 days of visa-free entry describes the former scheme, which has been repealed.

How to apply

Apply online, before departure, on thaievisa.go.th, the official platform of the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Select the visa category that matches the real purpose of your trip (tourism, business, study): the revised exemption covers tourism only, and other purposes have their own visa category. The platform shows which Thai diplomatic mission handles applications for your place of residence.

Where do you apply for a visa for Thailand from Paraguay?

An e-visa for Thailand is filed entirely online: there is no counter to visit and no file to hand in. The only address that matters is the official portal.

The application, the supporting documents and the payment all go through the official portal, from any country.
Lookalike sites copy the portal’s name and layout, then resell the same application with a margin. Check the domain before you type in a passport number.
The authorisation arrives by email. Keep a printed copy, some airlines ask for it at boarding.

You live in Paraguay on another passport?

The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Paraguay but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

Processing time and tips

Apply well in advance: processing time depends on the mission handling your file and is not guaranteed. Do not buy non-refundable tickets before you receive a decision. Travellers who entered Thailand before 15 September 2026 under the former scheme keep the length of stay shown on their entry stamp.

Common mistakes

Turning up at the airport without a visa because of the old 60-day visa-free rules: boarding or entry may be refused. Paying an intermediary that sells a "Thai e-Visa" at a mark-up: the only official platform is thaievisa.go.th. Using a tourist entry to work or do business: this is not allowed.
