No More Thailand Pass for International Tourists Starting July 1
The Centre of COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) has approved the removal of both the Thailand Pass and the US$10,000 health insurance requirement for international tourists effective July 1.
Below are the new requirements that international travellers need to prepare and follow:
Pre-arrival
For vaccinated travellers:
1. A valid passport or border pass (for arrivals through border checkpoints)
2. A COVID-19 vaccination certificate
- For adults aged 18 and above – Must be fully vaccinated with an approved COVID-19 vaccine at least 14 days before travelling to Thailand
- For unaccompanied travellers aged 17 and below – Must be vaccinated with at least one dose of approved COVID-19 vaccine 14 days before travelling to Thailand
- For travellers aged five to 17 – Exempted if travelling with parents
For unvaccinated and not fully vaccinated travellers:
1. A valid passport or border pass (for arrivals through border checkpoints)
On Arrival
All travellers must undergo entry screening, including body temperature check, and present their documents to the Immigration or Health Control officer.
Vaccinated travellers are free to go anywhere, except those who arrived by land through a border pass. These individuals can only stay no longer than three days within specified areas only.
Unvaccinated and not fully vaccinated travellers who present proof of a negative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test or professional antigen test kits (ATK) within 72 hours of travel are free to go anywhere in the kingdom.
Unvaccinated and not fully vaccinated travellers who don’t have any negative test result within 72 hours of travel must follow the public health instructions and guidelines as deemed appropriate by the Health Control officer at the point of arrival. Travellers will pay all expenses incurred.
During Their Stay
All travellers are advised to strictly follow health and safety standards. Those who experience COVID-like symptoms should be tested. If results come out as positive, they should get the appropriate medical treatment.
