Is transit visa required for Indian citizen with 23hr transit between Bangkok's two main airports?
I am an Indian passport holder and travelling from Nanjing to Bangkok to Calcutta (all are connecting flight). There is transit at Bangkok (Bangkok Don Mueang International Airport) for 23 hours, then I have a connecting flight to Calcutta from Suvarnabhumi airport. So I need to change the airport. Do I need a transit visa?
