Thailand allows Quarantine Free Entry to Fully Vaccinated from Nov

The government of Thailand has announced to allow quarantine free entry to fully vaccinated tourists from November.

The government of Thailand has announced to allow quarantine free entry for fully-vaccinated travelers from low risk countries starting from November. The announcement was recently made by Thailand's Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-o-cha, in order to mark a step forward in the revival of one of the country’s most important sectors, i.e., the tourism sector.

Thailand's PM added, "entertainment venues will be allowed to reopen in the country from December 1, when alcohol sales will also be permitted." As per the reports, "the 10 nations that are now seen as low risk, include the United Kingdom, China, the United States of America, and Germany." 

Additionally, reports also say that the country has been registering more than 10,000 positive infections daily since July. At present, it has fully vaccinated around 33% of its almost 70 million people, while half of its population has already received one dose.

The PM, while referring to visitors coming from 10 low-risk nations, said that at the arrival, they should present a negative Covid-19 test report, and travelers have to undergo a test once again upon arrival. If the second test also comes negative, any visitor from those countries will be allowed to travel freely like the Thais.
