Thailand Lifts RT-PCR Testing Requirement Effective May 1, 2022

Thailand’s Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) approved the lifting of the RT-PCR testing requirement for international arrivals beginning 1 May, 2022, and introduced two new entry schemes specifically customized for vaccinated and unvaccinated travelers.

International travelers who are fully vaccinated will no longer be required to show proof of a pre-arrival negative RT-PCR test nor undergo an arrival test.

They are still required to register for a Thailand Pass with a Certificate of COVID-19 Vaccination and an insurance policy with coverage no less than US$10,000, which was reduced from US$ 20,000.

Once arriving in Thailand, they will be allowed entry and are free to go anywhere in the kingdom.
