Hey guys, hope it's okay to ask this question here.

If not, please delete...๐Ÿ™

Does anyone know if covid *tests* are being required to fly from Chiang Mai to Surathani or Koh Samui (AirAsia)?

Or in the pier to Koh Phangan...?

Thank you!

(Due to medical reasons I don't have vaccine certificate)

TLDR : Answer Summary
As of May 1st, 2022, there are no COVID-19 test requirements for domestic air travel within Thailand, including flights from Chiang Mai to Surathani or Koh Samui. If tests are required in the future, it would likely only involve a rapid ATK test that could be administered on the spot.

@Silvia **********
its not sandbox for you as your already in thailand. Sandbox is for those that went direct from overseas

I couldnโ€™t 100% confirm about the boat trip, but all internal test requirements for domestic air travel will stop on May 1st.

If they do require a test for whatever reason itโ€™ll only be a ATK test which theyโ€™d almost certainly do on the spot.
