Non-Thais arriving in Thailand will no longer be required to apply for the “Thailand Pass” before their departure, nor will they be required to have insurance coverage of US$10,000 from July 1, according to the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) today (Friday).

 

They will, however, need to show their vaccination or a COVID-19 test certificate upon arrival and will have to complete a health declaration form, to prevent the spread of communicable diseases such as yellow fever. Body temperature screening, and the “Tor Mor 6” (TM6) immigration form for air arrivals will also be scrapped, to reduce congestion at airports.

 

While not compulsory, the wearing of face masks is still recommended by the CCSA while in a closed area or where there are a lot of people.

Yes, that's typical of Aseannow, they are always late in reporting news.

 

If a news story is posted by a member with the relevant link and it's not already posted by Aseanow, then let it run

So they're going to do away with masks or they're absolutely never going to get rid of masks?  There seems to be both things being said right now!

I predict delays at immigration, as they check vaccination passports for foreigners...

no, so far it's health control officials checking it.

But also airlines at check in and at transfer airports.

When flying to europe it's immigration at each country doing that duty, takes not more than 5 seconds.

 

But what they have said today, there would be only random checks, not full control. 

So only maybe for some certain arrivals coming from more risky countries 

Yellow Fever? That is contracted in Africa not SEA

Macro is a closed area?  I guess.   Big C?   I guess.  Every store?  probably.
