Vérification de la liste noire en Thaïlande : êtes-vous interdit d'entrée ?

Évalué par Wichuda Atthamethakon, LL.M., titulaire de la licence de l’Ordre des avocats thaïlandais 3149/2556, pour ThaiLawOnline, un cabinet d’avocats thaïlandais œuvrant pour des étrangers depuis 2006.

Dernière mise à jour :

We check with the Thai immigration authorities whether you are on the blacklist, and tell you in writing what we found and what your options are. Thailand has no public online lookup, so a written request is the usual route.

  • Who it is for: anyone who overstayed, was deported, was refused entry, has a criminal record, or simply wants certainty before booking a flight.
  • Frais : selon le cas. Nous établissons un devis après lecture de votre historique d'immigration et confirmons les honoraires par écrit avant de commencer.
  • Ce que nous ne faisons jamais : promise that a ban will be lifted, or promise a result. The decision belongs to the Thai authorities.
  1. Send us your passport details and your Thai immigration history.
  2. We confirm the fee in writing and you sign a power of attorney.
  3. We make the request to the Immigration Bureau.
  4. We report the result to you in writing, with the options the law gives you.

Qu'est-ce que la liste noire thaïlandaise

Le liste noire is the list of foreigners the Bureau de l'immigration will not admit to Thailand. Its legal basis is the Loi sur l'immigration B.E. 2522. Section 12 lists the characteristics that bar a foreigner from entering, and section 16 lets the Minister order that a foreigner, or a class of foreigners, is not permitted to enter where the Minister considers it inappropriate for the benefit of the country, public order, culture, good morals or the welfare of the people.

Motifs d'interdiction d'entrée selon la loi sur l'immigration

Section 12 bars entry to a foreigner who, among other grounds:

  • has been sentenced to imprisonment by a Thai or foreign court, except for a petty offence, an offence of negligence or an offence excepted by ministerial regulation (section 12(6))
  • gives reason to believe that they are a danger to society or to public peace, safety or national security, or is wanted under an arrest warrant issued by a foreign government (section 12(7))
  • gives reason to believe that they are entering for prostitution, trafficking, narcotics, customs evasion or other business contrary to public order or good morals (section 12(8))
  • is not permitted to enter by order of the Minister under section 16 (section 12(10))
  • has been expulsé by Thailand or another government, has had the right of residence revoked, or was sent out of Thailand at the Thai government’s expense, unless the Minister has granted an exemption as a special individual case (section 12(11))

Interdictions pour dépassement de séjour

Staying in Thailand without permission, or after permission has ended or been revoked, is an offence under section 81 of the Immigration Act, punishable by imprisonment of up to 2 years, a fine of up to 20,000 baht, or both. An official may also send the person out of the Kingdom under section 54. The length of a re-entry ban after an dépassement de séjour is not written in the Act itself. It comes from a Ministry of Interior order and depends on how long the overstay lasted and whether you surrendered or were arrested. Our guide to dépassement de visa, poursuites pénales et listes noires sets out the ban periods in full.

Comment se fait la vérification

There is no public database. We make a written request to the Immigration Bureau on your behalf, under a procuration you sign, with a copy of your passport and the details of your past entries and exits. Where you were deported or arrested, the dates and the place help the Bureau find the record. We then report to you in writing what the Bureau said.

A check tells you the position on the day it was made. It is not a guarantee of entry. A border officer decides on admission at the time you arrive.

Ce qui peut et ne peut pas être fait contre une interdiction

You can:

  • wait until a time-limited ban expires, and keep proof of the date it started
  • for a person deported or sent out of Thailand, ask the Minister for a special individual exemption under section 12(11)
  • where an officer orders you to leave because you fall under section 12, appeal to the Minister within 48 hours of learning of the order under section 22, except in the cases under section 12(1) and (10); the officer must stay your removal while the appeal is pending
  • correct a record that is wrong, for example a mistaken identity or an overstay that was in fact covered by an extension

You cannot buy your way off the list, and nobody can lawfully promise that a ban will be lifted. A request for an exemption is decided at the Minister’s discretion. We explain your chances honestly before you pay for any further step.

Que nous envoyer

  • A clear copy of every passport you have used in Thailand
  • Your entry and exit dates, as far as you know them
  • Any deportation order, court judgment, police record or receipt for an overstay fine
  • The reason you think you may be blacklisted

Foire aux questions

Puis-je vérifier en ligne si je suis sur la liste noire ?

No. There is no public online lookup. A written request to the Immigration Bureau, usually through a lawyer holding your power of attorney, is the usual route.

Quels sont les motifs légaux d'une interdiction d'entrée ?

Section 12 of the Immigration Act B.E. 2522 lists them, including a prison sentence, being a danger to public safety, past deportation, and an order of the Minister under section 16.

Le dépassement de séjour est-il un délit en Thaïlande ?

Yes. Section 81 of the Immigration Act punishes staying without permission with imprisonment of up to 2 years, a fine of up to 20,000 baht, or both.

Combien dure l'interdiction pour dépassement de séjour ?

The periods come from a Ministry of Interior order, not the Act, and depend on the length of the overstay and on whether you surrendered or were arrested. Our overstay guide sets them out.

Peut-on être retiré de la liste noire ?

Sometimes. A deported person may ask the Minister for a special exemption under section 12(11), and a wrong record can be corrected. The decision is discretionary, and we never promise a result.

Un résultat négatif garantit-il l'entrée ?

No. It shows the position on the day of the check. The officer at the border decides on admission when you arrive.

Combien coûte la vérification ?

Cela dépend du cas. Nous établissons un devis après examen de votre historique d'immigration et confirmons les honoraires par écrit avant de commencer.
