Yes, in 2020, Thailand did announce a **temporary waiver of the Visa on Arrival (VoA) fee** for Indian nationals, but it was **only valid until April 2020**. The fee waiver was part of a special promotion to encourage tourism during that period. Since **April 2020**, the **VoA fee** has been reinstated, and Indian nationals need to pay the standard **2,000 Thai Baht** (around INR 4,500) for a Visa on Arrival. It’s always a good idea to check the latest visa guidelines from official sources, like the **Royal Thai Embassy** or your airline, especially if you're planning travel in the future.
