ORIGINAL POSTER

Will we be given RT-PCR test on arrival? 

Do we need to purchase the test & go package with the SHA plus hotel (which cost $160 with airport transfer and RT-PCR and AKT test) or just SHA plus hotel and airport transfer separately? 

Please advice. Thank you! 🙏🏻

TLDR : Answer Summary

Travelers inquiring about arriving in Thailand must purchase a Test & Go package that includes the RT-PCR test and hotel stay; this package generally costs around $160 and includes airport transfer. Comments indicate the importance of booking through a Test & Go hotel, as recent regulations have changed requirements for testing before departure.
