[wpdiscuz-feedback id=”334_intro” question=”What do you think?” opened=”0″]Following the extension of the State of Emergency in Thailand the 60-day “Covid” visa extension application date has been extended by one additional month. The deadline was originally scheduled on July 25, but Thai Immigration discreetly updated the date to August 24th.

For the past two years the covid extensions have been following the emergency decree extensions, and this divergence may be signaling that this could be the last opportunity to obtain this type of extension.

Thailand has begun screening incoming travelers from abroad for monkeypox, using the Thailand Pass system. The international disease control and quarantine office at Suvarnabhumi airport is being set up to handle an outbreak of the virus in the capital’s main international airport. Travelers might not have any signs of the illness before they leave, but they might start to feel sick once they get to Thailand. Symptoms include a sore throat, headache, muscle pain, back pain, rash, blisters, and scabs. Passengers who have recently been to or lived in countries where monkeypox has been seen will be given more attention. When people arrive at Suvarnabhumi Airport, they must scan a QR code to get a “health beware card.” People who get monkeypox are put on a watch list and told to see a doctor at the nearest hospital as soon as possible. The government of Thailand has not said that…
One of the most important requirements for visitors to Thailand, now that the old rules have been lifted, is the COVID-19 insurance plan for foreigners, which covers the traveler for at least $10,000. In addition to meeting all the other requirements, the traveler must also have a valid visa and a Thailand Pass. This health insurance is an extra safety measure to make sure that the traveler will be able to pay for all costs if they get COVID-19 or die from it while they are in the kingdom. When it comes to documentation, Thai immigration authorities are notoriously rigorous, and they only accept insurance from a select few providers. If you’re going to travel to Thailand, a number of insurance companies in Thailand have teamed together to create COVID-19 insurance plans that will be approved by immigration, and these policies may be acquired quickly and conveniently online. What are…
