Is Bangkok reopening for Indians with work permits?
Hi Guys, Any local news of Bangkok reopening for indians with work permit?
Answer summary
The conversation revolves around the current status of travel from India to Thailand, particularly for Indians holding work permits. Multiple commenters confirm that currently, Indians are not allowed entry due to travel restrictions, and it's advised to check with the local Thai Embassy for any exceptions. Discussions also highlight frustrations about questions pertaining to visa issues, the importance of verification from embassies, and an underlying xenophobia in the group's interactions.

Also, good luck with that stinking attitude

Are Indians from Philippines with Philippine passport allowed to enter Bangkok?
Giorgio ******
@Ram ********
if you have philipine's passport you are Philippino , doesn't matter if you were indian or come "from the moon" ??? Or does it??
Steve *******
@Giorgio *****
Maybe dual nationality or naturalized in the Philippines.Giorgio ******
@Steve ******
you enter a country under one nationality . And get only a single passport stamped .! That's your nationality on the said day
Wherever you were born , in cluding the mooon 🌙or🪐
Nishant ********
OP@Ram ********
It has surely nothing to do with the indian community. If you have Philippine passport, I advise you to contact your respective embassy. They are not allowing if you are currently traveling or living in high risk countries.Ram *********
@Nishant *******
thank you so much for your help and advice 
Niclas ***********
Dial down the xenophobia here a little.
Ruth *******
@Niclas **********
why do the admins support it? It makes the group very unpleasantPooja ****************
@Ruth ******
I wish more people thought like you! This group is filled with Racists! The Admin needs to do a cleanup drive
Brian ********
Silly question.
Ruth *******
@Brian *******
It’s NOT a silly question. He’s asking if people have heard any news. He needs to report to his employer, Try to show a bit of empathy.Nishant ********
OP@Ruth ******
Thanks .. At least you understood. Its a hard time for the entire world. Our point of view depends on our personality. Phill ******
@Ruth ******
yes ,its a very stupid question .you obviosly dont live here . if you did you would understand . Ruth *******
@Phill *****
If Nishant lived there, he wouldn’t need to ask the question; would he? I’d say your logic is far more stupid.Ruth *******
@Alex ******
EXACTLY!
Alex *******
@Phill *****
again it’s not a stupid question BECAUSE he doesn’t live there. If you don’t like questions from outside Thailand don’t be on the page for visa advice.
Peter *********
Not a chance
John ************
Indians are not permitted in Thailand at this time. Please contact your local Thai Embassy for possible exceptions. Ok
Garrett ***********
@John **
Indians are permitted to Enter Thailand, just not from India. 
Roland ****
@Garrett **********
And from India's neighbouring countries, cos some have been using this loop hole, to travel via these countries to get to their destination.
Michael ********
Travel from India no and various other countries, Indians yes if you are in a low to medium risk country at present.
Nishant ********
OP@Michael *******
Thanks.. situation is getting better day by day. Hopefully they will consider in medium or low risk country soon.Michael ********
@Nishant *******
My advice keep checking embassy and the Bangkok post regularly.They are all scared of this delta variant
Michael ********
@Nishant *******
Yes I am in Singapore at moment and they still have borders closed to India, Bangladesh, Burma and thats caused major problems with labour supply.Activity
