Yesterday, we shared how Thai Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin and Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim held a meeting in Melbourne, Australia
where they discussed pressing matters involving the 2 countries.
Taking to his official Facebook page, Srettha said that last year, Malaysian tourists were the highest number of foreign travellers who visited Thailand and hoped that by abolishing the requirement for arrival and departure cards, more tourists from Malaysia would visit the country this year. Previously, Thailand’s Tourism and Sports Minister Sudawan Wangsuphakijkosol announced that the country recorded the highest number of international tourists in Southeast Asia last year with 28.
All vehicles entering Thailand via its land borders must fill in T.M.6 and keep it with them until exiting, with those losing the card facing a hefty fine by Thai Immigration when exiting the country. However, as procuring and filling up T.M. 6 takes time and could cause inconvenience for travellers from Malaysia, Thailand last year exempted the need for T.M. 6 for 6 months until 30 April 2024 if you’re crossing the border through the Sadao checkpoint in Songkhla.
