so
good day everyone i hope you are all having a wonderful time so here we are
again in order to update you about the latest from thailand concerning travel and tourism
and of course to tell you everything you need to know if you are willing
to come to thailand very soon so let's start it right now
so as we mentioned last week big changes ahead and starting from may 1 they will be applied and
we can say that thailand is finally open with some minor requirements for all the vaccinated
and unvaccinated people so in today's vlog first part i am going to talk about the entry rules
that will be applied starting from may 1 and in the second part i will explain how to apply
for thailand pass with the neros so it will be very interesting vlog let us start it right now
starting from may 1 all the vaccinated people that are traveling to thailand don't need any
pcr test which means no departure and rival pcr tests are required from them
in order to enter thailand if they are fully vaccinated
now what does it mean fully vaccinated and what are the approved vaccination system
fully vaccinated means you have two doses of the approved vaccines by thailand health system
and one dose of johnson vaccine now the question was is there a time limit for
the vaccines the answer is so simple no the only thing is required that your second dose
must be at least 14 days old before your departure
other than that your vaccination dates are approved so if we want to simplify the answer
you are vaccinated by two doses and your second dose date is already more than 14 days
then you are considered fully vaccinated a booster dose is an extra but not required
now after showing your vaccination proof the second thing you have to do
is to buy an insurance that covers your stay in thailand which is a coveted insurance now
here lots of people are asking if they have already an insurance that covers
that and which should be at least 10k well you should check that with the thailand pass system
unless if you don't like headaches just buy one and it can start from 700 baht for one week and if
you are wondering from where just go to thailand past website and you will find all the directions
now let's talk about unvaccinated people before we jump to thailand past system details
and how to apply for it with the new rules unvaccinated people have two options
in order to enter thailand the first one is just to quarantine for five days which no one wants to
do that and the second one is to make a pcr test in an interval of 72 hours before their departure
and upload it to thailand pass and they are free to enter thailand without quarantine
now this is a great news for unvaccinated people but in my opinion it's kind of last
minute job because you have to wait till the last three days in order to make a pcr test
okay you are negative then you are welcome without quarantine but if not then the trip is cancelled
this will be more cleared once people start applying and entering thailand under this source
now this means that everyone is welcome to thailand vaccinated or not vaccinated
and all can enjoy a free vacation without any quarantine if they follow the rules and
apply the right documents and proofs but this means also that the annoying type is still on
and time wasting app is still required now before we talk about that application
let's say what are the latest talks about thailand pass
there are talks that thailand pass can end starting from june
and this is what recommended from the most thai tourism authorities
but these are only talks and what do they mean by talent pests can and do they mean
you don't have to buy insurance anymore or no more pcr tests for unvaccinated people
all these things are not clear we can talk about them once the talent pass is really ended
now applying to talent pass under the new rules has already started so the process is so easy
and the documents are much less moreover it should take less time in order to get approved
so if you are vaccinated then you have to upload your vaccination proof the insurance
and your arrival date and weight your type as qr code and if you are not vaccinated then you can
apply the same way and avoid quarantine once you attach your pcr test result to the thailand pass
so be careful of that before your departure as i said the approval should be faster
but we will talk about the feedbacks hopefully next week
now of course there are lots of people who have already applied before april
29 and they booked hotels and pcr tests and paid for everything how about them
well email the hotels and ask for your refunds and on the other hand enjoy your
holidays from the minute you arrive with the thai pass that you have already got
so all the people that are applying now of course they should have the thai pass by buying insurance
and if the type has dropped in june will they still need that insurance
and if not will they get refund that's also
another thing that's why once the type pass is gone things will be much easier and clearer
let's wait and see if the thai pass will end in jon
but for the time being as we said in the title thailand is open fully with some minor rules
so let's enjoy that till everything is back on track i hope you enjoyed this
