For sure keeping bars, nightclubs closed is the wrong decision.
That's part of it.

They also have only a bit over half their population fully vaxed. Any prospective tourist has to weigh up the risk of getting covid whilst on holiday in a foreign land.

Then you have all the hoops to jump through. This piece from Australia sounds like a nightmare..

Agreed on the hoops. And for those who wish to travel around within Thailand, it doesn't end with entering the country. I went on a domestic flight yesterday and it was a right shit show; basically each province can make up their own rules, has their own QR codes to scan, etc. Fine if you live here and speak Thai, but what an annoyance that would be for a regular tourist.

As for the vax rate, it's much higher where most tourists venture, and many hotels and restaurants now advertise their fully vaccinated staff. That's one thing I wouldn't worry about.

I can see all these rules getting slowly dumped within 6 months.

I foresee nothing more than a vaccination certificate submitted online with your passport and your entry is approved. That's it. No test, before travel or on arrival. Once they conduct 100,000 airport tests and find only a handful, it will be dropped as it achieves nothing and cost a lot in lost tourism and the bureaucracy cost.

The rest of the world is moving away from testing, pre or post travel, it achieves absolutely nothing when the virus is endemic in both countries.

sorry, but to enter Thailand and stay in the country 30 days is it always necessary to obtain a visa at the embassy or can you leave only with a passport and complete vaccination and insurance ?

must registration for the thailand pass tp.consular.go.th be done even when a person stays in the country for no more than 30 days?

You don't say which category of traveller you belong to: eligible for no-quarantine process or Sandbox or non-vaccinated traveller.

I'd never risk a 30-day stay. What if you test positive on arrival or on the day 6-7 ATK test? There goes almost your entire stay, locked down in a hotel room or hospitel or worse, hospital if you have symptoms.

Why don't you check the Thai embassy web site in your native country? Below is the link to the Thai Embassy to Canada, describing the entire process:

https://ottawa.thaiembassy.org/en/conte ... 584326eaf5

Don't forget, you have to upload all your documents to the Thailand Pass website and must wait up to 7 days for the application to be approved.

What's your nationality?

Regardless of whether you need a visa or not, you currently always need pre-approval (Thailand Pass for test & go).

What are the logistics of going to Thailand for a 2 month tourist trip now? Cambodian and UK nationals. Here's my understanding.

First get tourist visas. The Embassy website says you have to show your round trip air tickets, really true?
Get the Thailand Pass - need to upload visas, passports, medical insurance, SHA hotel booking, vaccination card (card enough?) - no air ticket required.
The Thailand Pass can take up to 7 days so time flight date accordingly.
Get the PCR test (less than 72 hours prior)

Are there any good agents in PP for getting the visa? My agent doesn't do it.
