How strict is Thai immigration regarding RT-PCR test results at the airport?
Hello I would like to ask if Thai immigration at the airport is strict about the RT-PCR test result? Do they really check that its within the (72hours)? I got my swab test done Yesterday(Friday) and my flight is on Monday evening. Thank you in advance 🙏
Answer summary
The concern is primarily with airline policies rather than immigration checks. Airlines typically require travelers to present an RT-PCR test result within 72 hours before boarding. Without this documentation, there is a high likelihood of being denied entry onto the flight.

It’s not immigration that will check. It’s your airline. Almost certainly they will refuse you boarding if you don’t have a result within 72 hours.
