According to the announcement by the Thailand’s Centre of COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) on 20 May 2022, ‘Thailand Pass’ registration will be eased for international arrivals from 1 June 2022. Allow us to share with you the latest update as follows.
From 1 June 2022, Thailand Pass system will function as a pre-arrival registration, not an approval system. However, foreign nationals are still required to apply for a Thailand Pass (via https://tp.consular.go.th) to provide the following information:
1) COVID-19 vaccination certificates or COVID-19 test results.
2) A minimum of 10,000 USD equivalent of travel insurance that covers medical expenses related to COVID-19
3) A copy of a valid passport
The system will then automatically issue a Thailand Pass QR code for the applicants. Prior to issuing boarding pass, airlines are required to pre-check for Thailand Pass QR code to travelers coming to Thailand.
Foreign travelers also need to provide the QR code received to officers on arrival. Once they arrive to Thailand, travelers must undergo entry screening, and will then be allowed entry and are free to go anywhere in the kingdom.
Unvaccinated/not fully vaccinated travelers who are able to upload proof of a negative RT-PCR or professional ATK test within 72 hours of travel via the Thailand Pass system will also be allowed entry and are free to go anywhere in the kingdom.
*Important*
- Foreign travelers must upload correct documents and carry them in case they are required to show the documents for verification.
- Travelers coming to Thailand before the beginning of June still need to adhere to the same entry requirements as announced earlier.
- By entering Thailand under Thailand Elite Visa, members must not forget their duty to conduct the 90-day reporting and notification of residence for foreigner (TM30) in accordance with the Thai Immigration Law. Members must always check their arrival stamp and extension stamp to ensure that they are not overstaying to avoid penalties such as a fine, a ban from entering the country, imprisonment, and deportation.
