🇹🇭Countries Thai Citizens Can Visit with a US Visa17 Extra Destinations Unlocked in 2026

A valid US visa unlocks 17 additional destinations for Thai passport holders in 2026: 12 become visa-free, 3 grant a visa on arrival, and 2 offer an easier e-visa or eTA. Each destination applies its own conditions - most require a multiple-entry visa physically affixed in the passport.

With a valid US visa, Thai passport holders can enter 12 countries visa-free in 2026: Albania, Belize, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Colombia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, São Tomé and Príncipe and Serbia. Exact visa-type and validity conditions differ per destination and are listed on this page from official sources.

No. An ESTA is an electronic travel authorisation under the US Visa Waiver Program, not a visa. Destinations that admit US-visa holders generally require an actual visa vignette in the passport, and several specify a multiple-entry B1/B2 visitor visa. Check each destination's official conditions before booking.

No. A US visa does not grant entry to the Schengen area - Thai citizens still need a Schengen visa for the EU. However, several European countries outside Schengen admit US-visa holders, including Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia.

Several destinations require it. Albania requires a multiple-entry US visa that has previously been used in the United States, Egypt requires a valid and used visa, and Saudi Arabia's tourist visa-on-arrival requires the US visa to have been used at least once to enter the US. The exact condition for each destination is shown in the list above, taken from official sources.
