Suvarnabhumi to add 31 nationalities to automated gates by end of August
Suvarnabhumi Airport will allow travelers from 31 additional nationalities to use automated immigration gates by August 31, 2026. The expansion aims to reduce queues and could serve up to 6.5 million more travelers plus 900,000 long-term visa holders. Previous visitors with biometric data can use the gates immediately; first-time arrivals must register at a staffed counter.
