Thailand and Kazakhstan recently signed a permanent bilateral visa waiver agreement, as the South-East Asian country looks to lift foreign tourist arrivals back to pre-Covid-19 levels.

Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin’s cabinet had earlier approved the visa exemption, and Thai Foreign Minister Parnpree Bahiddha-Nukara signed the documents during Kazakhstan Foreign Minister Murat Nurtleu’s visit to Bangkok on April 23, according to Thai newspaper, The Nation.
