ORIGINAL POSTER
Test and Go… so I was approved before the suspension of the original scheme and I see now it has resumed or will be resuming. Will I need to book a new hotel and day 5 test or just stick with the original negative test on day of arrival?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the requirements for the Test and Go scheme in Thailand, particularly whether they need to book a new hotel and undergo a second COVID-19 test on day 5, if their approval predates the suspension of the scheme. Responses indicate that approved applicants typically maintain the rules applicable at the time of approval, which may exempt them from new requirements, including the second PCR test in certain cases. It's suggested to confirm regulations once officially published.

According to the CCSA's announcement yesterday, you don't have to pay for the 2nd PCR test at designated hospitals if your Test and Go was approved before 22 Dec 2021. (sorry it was written in Thai)

This won't be clear until publication in the Royal Gazette. If like the previous changes, the rules that applied when you got approved will apply for your stay.

Approved means no more change for u except u need go through 2nd RT- PCR test @ govt. directed hospitals on the 5th or 6th day.
