Where travel plans go wrong
Four ways a visa rule catches travellers out, and the Digismartiens stories that explain them.
- Rules change at short notice: Thailand cut its visa-free stay from 60 to 30 days from 15 September 2026.
- Processes move: Indian applicants for a China visa now apply online and submit to the embassy or consulate, not a visa centre, from 26 October 2026.
- Conditions hide in the detail: Uzbekistan's visa-free entry for Indians needs a qualifying multiple-entry visa and a return or onward ticket.
- Old advice stays online: the EU travel permit (ETIAS) is not operating yet, so nobody should pay for one now.
