After the CCSA introduced yesterday that Thailand will scrap requirements for pre-travel PCR checks for overseas flyers, the foreign affairs ministry reminds wannabe international travellers that most land border crossing points remain closed to them. Stunning says that solely 4 land border posts are open to tourists and expats: Nongkhai and Udon Thani (near the Laos border) and Songkhla and Satun (near Malaysia). Tourists coming into Thailand by way of these posts should still apply via Thailand Pass, which requires pre-travel PCR tests.
Thailand Pass requires several paperwork including vaccination standing, proof of booking right into a Thai resort pending the results of the RT-PCR post-arrival check, the US$20,000 insurance requirement, and personal documentation. The Tourism Authority of Thailand says the process can take as a lot as seven days.
Thai immigration authorities are also reminding long-stay tourists and expats that holding a re-entry permit upon leaving Thailand doesn’t cancel out the requirement to use online for Test & Go before coming back. Returning expats have been refused boarding of their flight after they failed to indicate a Test and Go QR code.
“A valid re-entry allow protects an current visa, but all entrants require prior Thailand Pass permission irrespective of visa status”.
