Hi all 

I am currently trying to plan our 3-4 week trip to Thailand for December /January currently I am not vaccinated and my partner only has 2 vaccinations can anyone tell me what is required for entry and do you think restrictions will be eased before then or am I better just to go and get vaccinated to ensure I can go? 

Any help is appreciated

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is planning a trip to Thailand and is inquiring about entry requirements given their vaccination status. Currently, a negative PCR test is required prior to arrival, and it is uncertain what the rules will be by December. There is some discussion about varying airline policies regarding vaccination, and users suggest that the situation may change over time. One comment clarifies that travelers can enter without a visa and stay visa-exempt for 30 days.

I thought I had read that and I should have said I fully understand things are ever changing just so I can decide what to do and what is the visa requirement for 3-4 weeks?

@Jonny ********

you can arrive without visa, and you enter the country 'visa exempt', you can then stay for 30 days which would cover your trip

Which ones? I'm not vaxxed and flew with Thai Air the other day and could have done similarly with any other airline flying out of Chiang Mai.

In addition to Stuart's good advice.

For your partner: Currently 2 doses is considered fully vaccinated.

December is a long time away. No one knows what will be the case then. Currently you would only need a negative PCR test 72 hours prior to arrival. What will be the rule then is just speculation.
