International travellers can start applying for visas under Thailand’s Test & Go entry programme from Feb 1, Ms Rachada Dhnadirek, a government spokesman, said on Twitter after a meeting of the nation’s main Covid-19 task force yesterday.
The quarantine-free entry will be extended to applicants of all nationalities, and they will need to undergo two Covid-19 tests – one upon arrival and another on the fifth day, Ms Rachada said.
Travellers, including those from Singapore, will have to isolate at a certified hotel while waiting for test results on the first and fifth day upon entering Thailand.
They will have to pre-book the accommodation and tests as part of entry approvals.
