Thailand will provide insurance for foreign tourists when tourism fees for international arrivals are imposed in June, deputy government spokeswoman Traisuree Taisaranakul said yesterday.
Entry fee collection was approved by the cabinet on Tuesday for every foreigner visiting Thailand. Visitors arriving by air must pay 300 baht while international visitors arriving by land or sea will have to pay 150 baht.
The fees will not apply to holders of diplomatic or official passports, foreigners who have a work permit, children under two, day trippers, transit passengers, or others catagorised by the national tourism committee.
