Covid Test as additional requirement for WP extension?

[maximo77]

Hi, one of my friend in Loei who is going to extent her WP is asked to show COVID Test result. Is it a new requirement for WP extension all over the kingdom?

It was proposed and very rapidly recinded, maybe the Loei Labour Office didn't get the second memo.

Yes, it seems the Labor Dept just added this to requirement.

It doesn't say anything that a PCR test or similar is required. So if a doctor concludes that somebody doesn't have Covid, because he doesn't have any symptoms, the same way it works for the other diseases, this should be sufficient.
