Can I still enter Thailand on visa waiver on arrival? And is it still possible to do 30 day extension? TIA
Answer summary
Yes, travelers from eligible countries can still enter Thailand on a visa waiver. Additionally, it is possible to obtain a 30-day extension on this entry. However, all entrants must go through the Thailand Pass system to gain entry, which has replaced the previous Certificate of Entry. For unvaccinated travelers, entry is still possible but requires showing a PCR test taken within 72 hours prior to arrival and a 14-day quarantine (ASQ) upon arrival.

It's not that complicated to get the thailand pass before travelling. It replaces the certificate of entry and some airlines are making sure you have your Thailand pass before boarding.

If you are from one of the countries allowed visa exempt entry then yes you can. You can also get a 30 day extension off that.

Everyone needs to go through the ThailandPass system to gain entry.
