Business visits to Thailand

Not verified yet (not yet covered). We haven't verified the business rules for Azerbaijani passport holders, and we don't publish rules we haven't checked against an official source. A rule that is awaiting verification or not yet covered is not a negative visa decision: it only means we haven't confirmed it on an official source yet. Until then, see thaievisa.go.th.

  2. Motorbike bag-snatching

    How it works: Thieves on motorbikes grab bags, including from people in open tuk-tuks.

    How to avoid it: Carry bags on the side away from the road and hold on in tuk-tuks.

  3. Drink spiking and assault

    How it works: Drinks are spiked in tourist areas, followed by sexual assault or robbery, of men and women.

    How to avoid it: Do not accept drinks from strangers, and pre-arrange your ride home.
