PHUKET: Phuket Vice Governor Pichet Panapong has confirmed that Phuket residents no longer need a special letter of permission in order to leave Phuket and then be allowed to return to the island.

 

The lifting of the requirement applies equally to Thai and foreign residents in Phuket, Vice Governor Pichet told The Phuket News today (Sept 2).

 

People who live or work in Phuket are listed among the exemptions in the latest provincial order defining who is prohibited from coming onto the island, which came into effect yesterday (Sept 1).

So if they leave the island for a visit somewhere, and then return what do they need?

They may return bearing unwanted gifts?
