BC, Tallinn, 24.01.2014.Print version
Starting Friday, all Estonian citizens can travel to Thailand for tourism purposes visa free and stay there visa free for up to 30 days, LETA/Public Broadcasting reports.
Estonian foreign minister Urmas Paet said that Thailand is a popular tourism destination for Estonian people and getting the visa-freedom was preceded by years of work.
"Hopefully visa freedom will help, in addition to developing tourism relations and contacts between people, also promote economic and culture ties between Estonia and Thailand," said Paet.
The ministry warns though that currently people should be careful travelling to Thailand because of protests and tense political situation in Bangkok.
Estonian citizens can travel visa free to more than 100 states now.
