Thailand Grants Visa Exemption to Chinese and Kazakhstani visitors amidst Declining Tourism

Thailand has announced that it will allow visa exemption for Chinese and Kazakhstani tourists from September 25th in an effort to boost tourist arrivals. The inclusion of Kazakhstan is in response to the severe winter weather there and the interest shown by tourists from the country. The visa exemption will be in effect until February and its impact will be assessed by the government. This move comes as the economic slowdown in China has led to fewer Chinese tourists visiting Thailand. During the five-month visa exemption period, Thailand is expected to see a significant increase in Chinese and Kazakhstani tourists and generate substantial tourism income.
