Besides, more than 100,000 tourists from Bangladesh visit Thailand every year. As India and UAE restricted visas, many now opted to visit Thailand, but currently, it takes 20-25 days to receive a visa instead of the previous deadline of three working days.
According to the Tourism Authorities of Thailand, 102,000 Bangladeshi visited Thailand in January-September this year while 101,000 people visited in the corresponding period of the previous years. A total of 140,000 Bangladesh travelled to the country in 2023 and 81,106 in 2022.
