Immigration update: Thailand Pass’ registration eases international arrival
Recent changes to the Test & Go Scheme are applicable from 1st June 2022. Thai Nationals will no longer be required to apply for a Thailand Pass.
Who will be affected?
Thai Nationals and Foreigners who are entering Thailand.
Background
The Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) has scrapped the requirement for RT-PCR testing of overseas arrivals and the “Test and Go” scheme for fully vaccinated travelers. Thailand prepares for more easing of restrictions in line with the COVID-19 situation.
Impact
Travelers entering Thailand by air from 1st June 2022, will find reduced restrictions. The Thailand Pass is subject to new entry measures, as follows:
- Passport Details
- The minimum travel insurance coverage for medical treatments in Thailand is now US$10,000. Insurance policy must be valid for the entire duration of your stay in Thailand.
- Vaccine Certificate
Unvaccinated/not fully vaccinated travelers who are able to upload proof of a negative RT-PCR or professional ATK test within 72 hours of travel via the Thailand Pass system will also be allowed entry and are free to go anywhere in the kingdom.
Implementation Date
1st June 2022
