Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info
rest assured it will be changed again and again before the 1st>
cant imagine how many will book the 1st & 5th nights an never show up for the 5th night test, cause they went somewhere else?
and the fact its still a heavy expensive to have to pay for a test before flight and 2 in thailand + insurance
only the truly die hards will travel> cant see them hitting the 8 million mark this year that they anticipate.
Kagi; next time supply links
https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/ge ... k5aJc_EpoA
form the link in the above article
this would scare me into NOT travelling to thailand in the next month or so>
Out of the 164 International travellers that tested positive yesterday, more than 50% tested positive on their 2nd test.
Day 0: TG (15) and S (55)
Day 1-3: TG (1) and S (0)
Day 4-7: TG (20) and S (62)
After Day 7: TG (11) and S (0)
so you catch it in Thailand and so ends ur vacation..;-(

so read the fine print in ur policy< are you covered if u test positive but no symptoms ?Also on Wednesday, the Public Health Ministry suggested that overseas visitors take out comprehensive health insurance that covers all Covid-19 treatment cases. Dr Kiattiphum Wongrajit, the public health permanent secretary, said visitors must ensure they are fully covered for all types of Covid-19 treatments.

Oh crap! Looked like I’ve been scammed without reading the “fine print”. WTF!ExPenhMan wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 4:36 pmOK, clarity is still needed as well as publication in the Royal Gazette, but did you @yong notice the hotel booking and PCR test weirdness? You have to book and pay for day 1 and day 5 in a hotel with a hospital affiliation and prepay for the PCR tests. Unless of course you go with the Phuket Sandbox program of 7 days.
Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info
@yong
Blame the Thais for complicating matters to the Nth degree. Here's more from the Tourism Authority of Thailand, posted about 8 pm Thai time. But it seems like the earlier info still stands.

While existing rules under the scheme remain unchanged, the CCSA approved additional requirements to ensure stringent COVID-19 precautions.
All new TEST & GO applications must submit A proof of prepayment for 2 separate nights of accommodation at government-approved hotel/s, such as, SHA Extra Plus (SHA++), AQ, OQ, or AHQ on Day 1 and Day 5, and the expenses for 2 RT-PCR tests on Day 1 and Day 5. The prepayment for Day 1 must include an accommodation, a test and a prearranged transfer from the airport to the hotel.
Travellers can book 2 different hotels for the accommodation on Day 1 and Day 5. However, on both Day 1 and Day 5, they must stay within the room for the RT-PCR test result.

I wish I'd saved the first Friday night " Returning happiness to the people " broadcast by the " Burma light " military dictatorship that our self pproclaimed "Iwas here before you" long standing Thai expert thought was good for the country.
Yes sir, I can boogie, I can boogie, boogie, boogie all night long.
Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info
This latest update is just insane. Two separate hotel bookings, both including PCR tests, there won't be many takers.

Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info
What happens if you test positive on arrival or pre-departure in Thailand? See my post quoting a Times article, in another thread.

Yes it makes no sense that a foreigner who tests negative on day one and then intermingles with the Thai community and tests positive on day 6 is treated as someone who brought COVID into the country and quarantinedphuketrichard wrote: ↑Sun Jan 23, 2022 12:33 pm ur fucked>>>
