Could you confirm that no visa is required and no covid tests are required to enter thailand from europe (stopover in bahrein) with a european (swedish and italian) passport?

Any other requirements that I might have missed?

I have a return ticket and I will stay 17 days in total.
Answer summary
European passport holders from Sweden and Italy can enter Thailand visa-free for up to 45 days and currently face no Covid-19 related entry requirements. Key requirements include having at least 20,000 Baht or equivalent in cash, a confirmed onward ticket, and accommodation booking for the initial days in Thailand, although these are seldom checked by immigration.

It's all good. Apparently everyone who took the vaccine is dead now, so the bars and beaches are pretty quiet. You'll have a good time 😂😂😂

Sweden & Italy passport both get visa free entry (currently 45 days). Thailand has no covid requirements anymore.

The technical requirements are 20,000Baht or equivalent in cash, onward plane ticket and accommodation booking (usually first few days your in Thailand).

Immigration almost never check tho, but they are the requirements. They normally only check if you're dodgy and they wanna find a reason to reject you.
