Also unlike her in that she had an astute and functional brain and had to win 3 elections in a proper democracy.

Your wasting your time on this forum trying to explain factual logic to a bunch of expats who, in many cases, have burned their bridges with their motherland.

In the case of the UK, they are going to watch the rest of us get a 10% inflation increase to our UK state pension next year.

Meanwhile Mr Burnhisbridges is on an expat frozen pension.

Comparing the greatest UK PM since Churchill to an inbreed ****wit shows how bitter and clueless some posters are.

Many have already cancelled their bookings! How many of them will book again, maybe at a higher price?

Very few. Better deals and no flip flopping elsewhere

If no, you don't need insurance (at this time that is of course, who knows if required in a couple of hours 555).

Prescient, you.

Just got into Soul, From BKK.  Announcement on the plane, all Chinese to be tested before could continue. When I was a leaving the plane two large groups were being swept away. I never saw them again. 

One exchange would not exchange Thai baht for local currency? I was a little surprised. I thought Thai Baht was a sort after currency in Asia. Finally found one that would exchange.  Hassle.

And on the announcement on the plane they clearly stated it was because China was in the mist of a Covid outbreak. 

So much for the Zero Covid policy..

Thailand maintains ‘fully-reopen’ entry rules

Only visitors coming from or going to countries which require a RT-PCR test need to have health insurance covering treatment of COVID-19 in Thailand.

 

 

TAT NewsroomThe Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) would like to clarify that Thailand continues to welcome all international tourists under the fully-reopen-to-tourism policy that was introduced on 1 October, 2022.

Thailand’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Health, H.E. Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul, said “International travellers arriving in Thailand are not required to show proof of vaccination.”

In addition, foreign tourists  are not required to show ATK or RT-PCR test results.

 

As part of the full reopening to tourism, Thailand is also offering a longer period of stay for visitors. Effective through to 31 March, 2023, the period of stay is extended to 45 days (from 30 days) for tourists from countries/territories entitled for visa exemption, and to 30 days (from 15 days) for those eligible for a Visa on Arrival (VOA).

 

However, while Thailand is welcoming all visitors, a visitor source market may require incoming visitors including their own nationals returning home to have a negative PCR result.

 

Thus, Thailand is aiming to correspond with rules of these countries – among them are China and India. Therefore, passengers from a country that has requirements for RT-PCR test must have health insurance covering treatment of COVID-19 in Thailand.

 

With the ‘Visit Thailand Year 2023: Amazing New Chapters’ campaign, tourists the world over are invited to experience the kingdom’s myriad of wonderful existing and new tourism experiences, products and services.
