Thailand is cautiously easing entry requirements

Advertising

Since the beginning of the pandemic, travelers have had to forego Thailand vacations. The country, which lives heavily on tourism, is taking comparatively tough action against the spread of the virus.

Now those responsible are daring at least a small step in the direction of easing and shortening the prescribed duration of the quarantine from April 1. Until now, travelers had to spend a full 14 days in isolation. That doesn't change for people from high-risk areas either. But from now on, new regulations apply to travelers from selected countries: They only have to spend ten nights in one of the quarantine-certified hotels. 

In addition, two PCR tests must be carried out during the hotel stay. If these were negative, nothing would stand in the way of a “normal” vacation. This is what the specialist portal reports Travel topia. In contrast, Covid-19 vaccinated people naturally enjoy more freedom. They only have to go into a brief quarantine of seven nights and also have a negative corona test on site before the holiday can start.

All of this is just the beginning of the "great reopening" of Thailand. Rumor has it that the government plans to open it completely to tourists next fall. Until then, quarantine-free entry should be made possible in selected regions. It remains to be seen whether that turns out to be true. The only thing that is certain is the fact that any easing can only be taken advantage of by people from low-risk countries.
