Foreign travelers don't need to present a Covid-free certificate to get on flights starting April 1. However, you will still have to go through the RT-PCR test when you arrive and take an antigen test on the 5th day.
The only caveat to this good news is that there is no reduction in the required cover of travel insurance to visit Thailand, which remains at US$20,000.
Pubs and entertainment venues will remain closed. Though, the industry is demanding the reopening of these establishments.
Authorities are working on a plan to classify the pandemic as endemic in the coming months but any progress towards it would depend on controlling the current outbreak before then.
The government hasn’t stopped the Covid mask mandate or some of the restrictions imposed by Covid. These measures will remain in place until the outbreak has been tamed.
