Thailand tightens deportation rules for foreigners
Thailand's Cabinet approved a draft regulation giving authorities clearer powers to deport foreigners who violate visa rules, work without permits, forge documents, or receive prison sentences of three years or more. Offenders will be deported within 30 days of completing their prison term, with costs covered by state funds. The draft is now under review by the Council of State before taking effect.
