Dear all, 

 

I am a foreign girl living and now working in my apartment in Bangkok. Having briefly been abroad in March, I took the chance to get fully vaccinated (antibodies confirmed).

 

Unfortunately, the ongoing COVID chaos in Thailand is now preventing me to meet-up with my fiancé who lives close to the Myanmar border in Tak province and whom I haven't seen for almost 3 months. If he visits me in Bangkok, he will have to stay in a 14-day's quarantine upon his return to Tak. If I drive to Tak, I will be "locked up" in quarantine there for 14 days. I cannot take leave that long and working there is impossible without internet.

 

Hence my thought/question,...: 

Does anyone know a province in Thailand that does not require quarantining people from Bangkok as well as Tak and for which Tak does not require quarantining when returning from there? If this exists, my fiancé and I would gladly meet there.  

 

I know the information I am asking for is somewhere to be found on www.moicovid.com However, even my Thai friends cannot get their head around countless announcements on that website. 

 

Any help would be much appreciated. 

Thank you! 

there is no quarantine for inter province travel.

might change in the future.

you should not move, because you might be stacked there for long, so he should travel. Probably he should move to bangkok and try to find work here

Dear internationalism,

 

Thanks for your reply. However, I disagree with you.

 

Although you are right that driving through a province is permitted without quarantine, as soon as you stop somewhere for a night, two, etc. you are however bound to follow the disease prevention regulations of that province. People driving off from Bangkok for a stay in another province for a night, etc. are hence obliged to undergo quarantine in many of Thailand's provinces at this very moment. Procedures, durations, etc. vary province by province (see www.moicovid.com). 

 

For that reason, I stay with my initial question. I hope that someone with an excellent knowledge of Thai is able to read through these provincial announcements and maybe find a loophole for me. 

 

Thank you.
