good day everyone i hope you are all having a wonderful time it's another beautiful day here
in bangkok and as usual i am here to update you about the latest concerning travel and
tourism and everything you should know if you are willing to come to thailand
so here we are in june and the new easing rules are being applied in order to enter thailand
and it seems that there is still one last step to end up all the entry obligations and make the
way open for everyone to enter and enjoy their vacation by just a passport and a visa if needed
in today's vlog we are going to talk about the june entry rules the insurances and their prices
the new process at the arrivals nightlife reopening and the problems that they are facing
the masks on and off scenarios and moreover what is the final step for thailand in july to end
all these regulations so lots of interesting informations let us start it right now
as i said june is here and the new rules are being applied so what are they and how to enter thailand
now in general we can divide the entry rules into three categories for thai nationals for
vaccinated foreigners and the third category for unvaccinated ones so what are the rules
if we start with thai nationals that are willing to return to thailand
then the good news is that they don't need to apply for thailand pass starting from june 1.
the process is super easy all they need is their passport vaccination proof and
if they are covered with the health care then they don't need the insurance tool so easy like that
now as you see the types has ended for thai nationals and also the insurance if they
are covered under their health system so all they need a vaccination proof and a passport
now what about the foreigners what are the things they need in order to enter thailand now
foreigners who are willing to enter thailand in june have still to apply for thailand pests
and buy insurance that covers 10k and moreover to upload their vaccination
proof or an atk test prior 72 hours to their departures so what are the details
everyone should apply for thailand pass vaccinated or not vaccinated the vaccinated ones should
upload their vaccination proof which is only to those with no expiry dates and the unvaccinated
ones can apply an atk test before 72 hours prior their departures so that's the first requirement
travelers 5 to 17 years of age traveling to thailand alone must get vaccinated with at least
one dose of an approved vaccine those traveling with parents are exempt from these requirements
the second requirement is tanki insurance that covers your stay in thailand no matter
you're vaccinated or not and upload that into types and if these both documents are properly
uploaded and verified then you will get your pass instantly so no more waiting hours or days hoping
that it will be removed completely in the next month just like it is now for thai nationals
since we are talking about the insurance i had lot of questions about where to book and how much to
pay and what are the insurances that are approved or accepted well my friends it's so easy nowadays
and many companies with different prices but one of the cheapest and approved insurances is the
luma asian pest which covers multiple countries and you can get that starting from 1000 taipat
but as i said many companies now and you can check them on the official thai pass website
now that you know about the june entry requirements let's talk about the arrival
procedure and what are the steps till you go out from the airport and what documents to carry
upon arriving to thailand all travelers must undergo entry screening including
body temperature check and present the required documents to the immigration to carry out the
checks from their passports and tile and pests so have a hard copy with your passport to save time
the vaccinated travelers and the unvaccinated ones with the atk test
will then be allowed to enter thailand and are free to go anywhere in the kingdom
so after the immigration grab your luggage maybe buy a sim card exchange
some money get a public transportation or a taxi and start enjoying your vacation
now that you know about the entry rules and the arrivals procedure let's talk about the nightlife
as you know since june 1 all the nightlife venues and the entertainment places are reopened
but the problem is now the operating hours and the rules since they have to close at midnight
and no alcohol sale after two and moreover the mask and the social distancing rules
are not making the nightlife too much exciting and hence there's still much to do in order to
save the nightlife in thailand and of course to make things more attractive
well phuket mask story was kind of not clear because first it was announced that people can
remove the mask at outdoors and that was confirmed and when we were reading the news the second day
it was cancelled so the story is to put or not to put your mess
nothing confirmed yet so still the masks are required till further notice
also the rules of face masks are still on and off in bangkok lately it was announced that it will
be off starting june 15 but after that we had some news that it might not so all in all still
on and off it seems that it will be removed soon everywhere in thailand but still pending
everyone is waiting now july and as i said in the title the last opening step of thailand
that should be the removal of thailand pass for everyone and why not no more face masks everywhere
will these two steps happen in july the answer can be clear in the coming weeks i hope you enjoyed
