A guide to Thailand’s Test and Go scheme – Business Traveller

Thailand reopened to fully vaccinated travellers in stages, beginning with Phuket in July and then to the whole country on November 1.

Visitors who are not fully vaccinated can still enter Thailand but will have to quarantine in a state-approved facility for 7-14 days.

The country has two schemes designed for fully vaccinated visitors:

• Test and Go
• The Blue Zone Sandbox (Sandbox Programme)

This feature will outline the first of these. See a guide to the Sandbox scheme here.

In brief, the Test and Go waiver programme allows fully vaccinated travellers to take a PCR test upon arrival in Thailand and isolate in a government-approved hotel for one night until they receive a negative result.

Note that applications for Test and Go are closed until further notice due to the rise in cases of the Omicron variant around the world.
