EricTh Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Christmas is a safer bet than 1 November without quarantine. I think from 1 Dec, you still have to do the Covid test on arrival and you have to pay for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still required and no doubt will be for the rest of the year at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haveasay Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 It's a constantly changing situation bar coe though that could change as the major and I repeat major problem for all entering Thailand. Insurance, accommodation, shplus, even flights possible, it's dealing with embassy's and consulates, in a restricted and unreliable fashion, scares most would be travellers. Dump coe.....,.visa on arrival touted by some. Still infections are around 10000 and even if double vaccinated your not 100% immune. I'm in Sydney, more waiting Monday, freedom day than pursuing Xmas in Thailand. Next year's challenge, when conditions for entertaining Thailand ease or tourism to Thailand from Thai authorities bad air ATM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubonjoe Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Thailand is replacing the COE with the Thailand Pass effective November 1st. At this time if fully vaccinated you can enter the country with only a one night stay needed in a SHA+ hotel while waiting for a negative covid 19 test result. After that you are free to travel wherever you want to. You should have no problem with spending Christmas in Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
