Just a quick question. Is the test and go scheme valid for all of Thailand or do you have to use the Sandbox scheme for other designated areas. Many thanks in advance.

Answer summary

The Test and Go scheme allows travelers to stay at any location within a 5-hour travel radius of their port of entry on the first day. However, travelers must undergo an additional test on the fifth day at a suitable hotel near their current location, which is mandatory.

Test n go day 1 can stay anywhere within 5hr of port of entry by road. Then can travel anywhere but must report for day 5 test to a suitable hotel near where you will be at that time. Non negotiable - must stay in hotel for day 1 and day 5

didnt used to be this way. Used to be that you used the QR code on the pink paper given to you and then you chose your own hospital with no need for hotel. Too many idiots didnt show for the second test so here we are with this mess
