ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, I've got a flight landing in Thailand on tuesday afternoon. I plan on getting visa exemption, French passport. Does this seem feasible?

I have proof of onward travel, proof of lodging for 14 days, 20K baht, medical certificate from the 14/03 regarding covid-19 and a document I wrote certifying I've only been to France and Thailand in the past 12 months. Thanks in advance.

/2020 might be deemed invalid as most are to be dated 3 days before the flight. Hopefully they won't be too picky about this.

Went swimmingly, no questions asked, thank you. I got extremely lucky considering the UE borders closed hours after I boarded my flight, though.
