ORIGINAL POSTER

For the test & go can you just book 1 night in BKK and then go elsewhere without booking or do you need to book more than 1 night? Do I need to have a hotel reservation for the length of my stay? Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽

TLDR : Answer Summary

For the Test & Go program, you only need to have a confirmed booking for one night at your hotel in Thailand. Different embassies may have varying policies, but it is generally acceptable to book just one night and then travel elsewhere after your negative test result. You might be asked for your address in Thailand, but providing details of the first hotel is usually sufficient. Immigration may inquire about your travel plans, so having some form of a plan or additional bookings, even if not required, can be helpful.

Immigration will ask you where you are going after test&go so be prepared with some kind of answer or booking to show them. You don't need something booked for the length of your stay, just to show that you have at least some plan after you finish your test.

Once your result is negative, you can go elsewhere after 1 night. The Legacy Hotel is the best for you if you are looking for an affordable Test & Go hotel. They offer instant booking confirmation and the package includes: 1x RT-PCR Test (Day 1)

1x Airport Transfer

1 Day of Stay

1x ATK Self Test (for Day 5)

Often you will be asked for your address in Thailand. I just give the name of the first hotel or condo I've booked. (After Quarantine).

Different embassies/consulates seem to have different policies on this. Generally you only need to have a confirmed booking for your test and go. You may find yours wants details of further nights but it certainly shouldn’t be for the full time your here, just a couple of days at most. You’re a tourist. You travel. You explore. You’re not expected to document prior to arrival your itinerary.
