The Thai Center for COVID-19 Management (CCSA) approved the removal of the RT-PCR testing requirement for international arrivals starting May 1, 2022, and introduced two new customized entry schemes for vaccinated and unvaccinated travelers.
International travelers who are fully vaccinated will no longer be required to undergo testing upon arrival. They are still required to register to obtain the Thailand Pass by demonstrating a COVID-19 vaccination certificate and an insurance policy with coverage not less than USD 10,000 (reduced from USD 20,000), approximately 9,250.00 euros. Once in Thailand, they can enter enjoying full freedom of movement throughout the territory.
Unvaccinated or not fully vaccinated international travelers will no longer be required to undergo testing upon arrival. However, they must register to obtain the Thailand Pass by presenting a hotel reservation for 5 days and an insurance policy with coverage not less than USD 10,000 (reduced from USD 20,000), approximately 9,250.00 euros. Once in Thailand, they will need to undergo quarantining for 5 days and take an RT-PCR test on the fifth day after their arrival.
An exception is made for unvaccinated travelers who can upload via the Thailand Pass system proof of a negative RT-PCR test taken within 72 hours of travel. They, like completely vaccinated travelers, will be free to move around the entire territory without restrictions.
While in Thailand, it is advised that vaccinated and unvaccinated travelers strictly follow health and safety measures. Travelers exhibiting symptoms similar to COVID should undergo testing. If positive, they should receive appropriate medical treatment.
