Residents returning to Thailand

[epicking]

What the latest regarding Residents returning regarding quarantine ?
Is it forced quarantine at a hotel or can you quarantine at home ?
If I get a test before I leave and a couple of days after I land, will that shorten my quarantine ?
Advice appreciated. Thanks

At this time passenger flights into Thailand are not allowed until July 1st.

Only repatriation flights for Thais and few expats that qualify are allowed. They have to go into a mandatory 14 day quarantine at designated hotels.

It is unknown what will be required after June 30th.

Hi,

 

Just to add, I applied for a special permit to enter (Certificate of Entry) and I was told that I'd need to have arranged for my state quarantine facility prior to arrival.  While I have not received my CoE yet, it was made clear at the time I filed my application at my local Embassy, that my quarantine facility issues (which I assume to mean having a confirmed booking, however, it sounds as if some hotels permit payment at time of arrival and others require advance payment) would have to be finalized prior my departure flight.  I have seen nothing that seems to indicate that any mandatory quarantine will be allowed at private residences - I've only seen reports of it being allowed at state-controlled/owned facilities or privately-owned facilities acting operating under special permit.

 

But, as others have noted, there isn't a whole lot of clear, verifiable guidance on the matter right now.. The earliest it looks like that may come would be near the end of June - as several important governmental actions are set to end at that time..  So we will all have to wait for more..  Right now, the above seems to only apply to the narrow category of non-Thais who are eligible to apply for a CoE at this point in time.
