Test n Go, Test Day 1 and Day 5. After taking the test on day 1 can we leave the Thailand 🇹🇭? Or we have to stay there until test Day 5 ?
Answer summary
Under the Test & Go program in Thailand, travelers can leave the country after taking the RT-PCR test on Day 1, without needing to remain in Thailand until Day 5. However, it is necessary to upload a departure ticket when applying for the Thailand Pass. There is no requirement for a second RT-PCR test on Day 5 if you choose to leave early.

I think most countries make you test to go home. You will most likely need 2 test either way.

Can't understand the responses to this post, perhaps the guy is staying a few days "in transit", I have done the same thing in the past, usually to break up the trip.

, originally the final destination is to Laos. But Laos flights are not posted on any website. Being in Thailand for more than 24hrs and I am required to do the whole nine, so I mind as well enjoy for 7 days there.

@Alan ******
you take the risk of testing positif while " in transit"...yes, that would really break up the trip.

Each to their own, perhaps people are over the last two years and want to travel. They shouldn't be questioned over their intentions.

You can leave before day 5 and don’t need to take 2nd RT-PCR test.

You will need to upload departure ticket when applying Test&go Thailand pass

, I already did the whole Thai Pass, I booked the 7 days hotel etc… Since I already paid for 7 nights, I’m think just enjoy my time there. If I’m bored, I might want to leave, who knows.
