Hi all,

Has anyone traveled from Thailand to UK recently? It is required to do a PCR test before flying??

I seen this on the gov website and I wonder if that's the case from 11/02 or is the same now

TLDR : Answer Summary

Travelers from Thailand to the UK no longer need a PCR test if they are vaccinated, following recent changes announced. However, specific airlines may have their own testing requirements, and caution is advised with certain carriers.

Yes these changes were announced yesterday. If you are vaccinated you don't need any testing. The only exception would be the airline requiring it but that really shouldn't be the case.

Yes a lot of people fail to understand that countries and airlines are mutually exclusive; just because one might ask for a test, it doesn’t follow that the other also will – and vice versa. Always repeat always check with both the airline and the embassy to ensure their regulations are compatible for you.
