Entry Requirements for Thailand starting August of 2022

No longer are visitors needed to purchase health insurance or submit an application for a Thailand Pass before entering the country. Although not required, health insurance that covers Covid-19 costs is nevertheless advised. However, the CCSA advises using masks in enclosed, congested, and inadequately ventilated areas. Still necessary on public transportation are masks. If you test positive for Covid and need hospital care while visiting Thailand, affordable health insurance could save you a lot of money. There are numerous insurance options available. If you have a passport from one of these 64 nations and want to stay in the country for fewer than 30 days, you can visit Thailand without a visa.

Travelers who have had all necessary vaccinations must present a current passport and a Covid-19 vaccination certificate. Anyone above the age of 18 must receive at least two doses of an authorized vaccine at least 14 days prior to the date of travel in order to be fully protected. Between the ages of 5 and 17, travelers must receive at least one dose of an authorized vaccine at least 14 days before to their departure date. This condition does not apply to children traveling with their parents. While travelers who are partially or completely uninfected must also present a current passport and a negative Covid-19 RT-PCR or Pro-ATK test result obtained within 72 hours of departure. Unvaccinated travelers who arrive at the border without a negative test result may still be allowed entrance provided they undergo a negative ATK test upon arrival at their own expense, according to Thailand’s Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA). You should still get one, though, as the majority of airlines demand that travelers without vaccinations present documentation of a negative test result upon check-in.

Although masks are not necessary outside, the CCSA advises wearing them in crowded or poorly ventilated outdoor areas, such as a busy market.

The majority of Thai people continue to wear masks inside, and many continue to do so outside. Travelers with and without vaccinations are welcome in Thailand, but there are separate entrance criteria for each. In Thailand, bars and clubs are allowed to stay open until 2am and 1am, respectively. The Emergency Decree of Thailand was recently extended for a record-breaking 19th time. According to the CCSA, Thailand will be under a “state of emergency” due to the ongoing Covid epidemic until at least September 30th, 2022. The edict prohibits assemblies in public places.
