This is last night's message from the Australian Ambassador, from about 4:00 on he talks of the compassionate grounds application. As he's getting info straight from the Thai government this may be of interest to anyone looking at this avenue to return to Thailand

Get in touch with the Thai Embassy I'm sure once the new rules are in force you will be allowed to enter because you have a thai spouse

I hope things go as planned. State Q options are dotted around BKK and Pattaya. The govt choose for you. Sometimes you need to pay bet 37k-70kBHT per room. My neice was back from Canada and sent to a hotel near Bkk.

Contact the consulate in the UK to get the list of quarantine hotels here

We don't have any more information than they mentioned on the announcement at this time.

Your wife is thai, have her start googling around or calling around ;)

This is all we have for the entry request procedure
