one two three
hello everyone and welcome back again into another vlog from live love thailand
after almost half a month of thailand reopening with some rules and obligations
where lots of us agree is kind of partially opening them for reopening there was a frequently
asked question or let's say an argument where lots of subscribers and viewers wondered if
traveling and applying to thailand these days is an easy process or complicated and risky mission
now i am sure we all agree about an easy traveling or a vacation process to thailand
because it does not need too much thinking where simply you can book your plane ticket
your preferred accommodation that suits your budget and application for a tourist
visa if needed and that's it just pack your bags take your passport and tickets
and head to your vacation and it's up to you to stay a week or a month or as
much as you can after all it's your vacation and it all depends on your time and budget
now maybe things after kovit has little bit changed and after two years of up and down
rules most of the airlines or countries are asking about pre-departure pcr tests if not vaccinated
and if yes just your vaccination proof so after all not that much we are living in the coveted
era and some requirements are a must so all in all this days this is the easy way of traveling
let's jump now to thailand recent entry rules and see at the end if it's easy or kind of complicated
and you can tell me that in the comment section but before you come into any conclusions
try to watch and base your answers on facts
as you know lately we have the thailand pass application that replaced the coe
and now it's up to this application the requirements and the rules
to apply for thailand which in my opinion it's not a huge difference and still you have bunch
of requirements and prepaid bookings to be approved and get your pass to thailand
now the simplest thing in this process is to book your plane ticket and it's up to you
which airlines you want to fly with as long as your destination is directly to thailand
maybe with a connection flight so at least we have one thing left that seems so easy
booking your plane ticket and it does not need any pre-approvals or guidance
the second thing seems kind of easy too and it's your vaccination certificate
and if you are not vaccinated then 10 days quarantine is waiting for you
so let's talk about the vaccinated ones now so you have your vaccination proof you check
it with your passport name it's identical so you are almost okay you have a qr code and
dates then seems perfect and here you have your second document as you see till now nothing much
no complications and it seem like the easy way so what's next what is your third requirement
the third thing you have to do is to book your aq or sha plus hotel and here if you
are from the quran team free countries then your booking will be one day and if not then
you are going to enjoy a sandbox with 7 days booking and your only choice is an
sha plus hotel so here we start the obligations and extra expenses
not any hotel and not up to your vacation
if you are in the sandbox group which is seven days so you are going to enjoy
seven days in the same zone so you better check your hotel good before you book it
here i mean not the pool or the window view but if it's sha or aq and all the other requirements
now with your hotel booking you have to book also your pcr test
which is only one if you are in the test and go group
and two if you are in the sandbox group so as you see your choices are limited
and extra expenses to be paid before choosing a standard rom or deluxe so keep that too in mind
now after you do your first day or the seven days for the sandboxes
you can choose any hotel or any accommodation and live happily ever after but first
do what is required unless you cannot fit in the thailand pass application
a covet insurance is a must and not any insurance it should cover at least 50
000 us dollars and better to be an axa insurance type to make it easy to apply for the past
so that's another prepaid package you should have it and apply it
now besides all we have mentioned you have to fill the requested forms which ask you
your stay your visit type some basic questions and you fill them accordingly and also attach
it to your thailand pest application and here we are you are almost done
now that you have applied everything needed it's time to submit your application
and get an approval mail that says we got your application wait your approval or qr code so
you can go to your couch relax think about your tanning cream and wait your approval
the qr code you can get it in an hour or maybe in three days or little bit more
if everything is okay with your application then you will get it sooner or later
and in that way you have your entry permission now if there is something wrong you will not get
it and try to solve your problem by checking the reason and apply it again so no problem
it can be solved and if you follow the rules there should not be any problems
now let's say you did your homework good you got your qr code your documents are
ready your visa your passport your ticket vaccination proof
your pre-departure pcr test your bags and your camera and heading to thailand then
relax in the plane and enjoy your trip and once you arrive this is what will happen
you have arrived safely welcome to thailand relax
smile and your documents will be checked you got everything right
your passport stamped and ready to go but before you have two things to do so what are they
you have another pcr test at your arrival now it can be in a specified place or your hotel
but you will do it and as i said you already have paid it with your hotel
booking so no worries for that it's just an arrival pcr test
now you also have prepaid for your transportation from the airport to your hotel so you check the
signs your name you go to your vehicle van or taxi and sealed route to your hotel where you
will wait your test result so no 7 11's or anything else just go to your hotel and wait
once you get your result and your negative then you are free to go for the test and go group
you can go any province and for the sandbox group enjoy seven days at your province
and after your second pcr test you are free too
now this is the reality all you need to apply to enter thailand
are the steps that i have mentioned and get the talent pass all should be completed
without missing any step so that's the way and the only way to enter thailand these days
now here we come to our ask question with the previous mentioned requirements is traveling to
talent easy or complicated is the application process hard or easy well i would love to know
your opinion in the comment sections and the reasons you think it's easy or complicated
now i am sure there will be different opinions but what matters is that this is a trial phase
and things can be much easier in the coming months we will talk this friday about if you
travel to thailand now what are the things you can do or enjoy and what are the things
