For longer stays, up to 60 days, a tourist visa must be obtained in advance from a Thai Embassy or Consulate office abroad. A visa must be used within three months from the date of issue and can be extended if necessary. Some nationalities must have visas in advance in order to enter Thailand.

Certificates of of inoculation against Cholera and Yellow fever are not required unless you are coming from an infected area. Malaria may not exist in the vicinity of well cared city centers, but it does exist in remote areas including the border areas of Thailand.

Bangkok and other major cities of Thailand have very good medical facilities and hospitals.
Vaccination against Meningitis, and Hepatitis ‘A’ and ‘B’ should be taken. You should consult with your doctor when you should take these vaccinations. However, you should take all vaccinations prior to your trip departure.

Diarrhoea - change of water, food or climate can cause this infectious disease. One should avoid contaminated food or water at all times.
Giardiasis-this intestinal disorder is caused by contaminated water. Therefore, do not drink tap water. Purified and bottled water is widely available at reasonable price. We suggest that you drink only bottled water. When trekking in the outdoors, we provide you with iodine, filtered, and boiled water. Even in the restaurants, it is good idea to order a bottled water.
Rabies is found in many countries and is caused through bites, licks or scratches by infected animals, such as dogs, cats, monkeys and other animals. It is good idea to avoid animals when traveling, especially dogs in the villages in remote places where most of our adventure trips go through. Please ask us for further health questions so that we can mail you more detailed information or answer your question.
