What are the current quarantine rules for travelers to Thailand, particularly regarding vaccinated visitors?
Ok actually better than expected
Answer summary
The discussion primarily revolves around Thailand's quarantine rules and requirements for travelers, particularly concerning vaccinated visitors. There is a debate about the credibility and impact of vaccine rollouts in various countries, including the UK and Brazil. Participants express skepticism towards the quarantine changes (from 14 to 10 days) and speculate about plans for reducing it further for vaccinated travelers, especially in relation to Phuket's reopening for international tourism starting July 1. Concerns about hotel pricing for quarantine stays and the implications of evolving travel protocols are also raised.

Asq hotels will just raise rates to recover losses.
Not trying to be a downer but we all know it's true.
How bout no quarantine if vaccinated, isn't that how vaccines are supposed to work??

Andy Mitchell. That will come eventually, but it's a gradual process, and will be dependant on how quickly the whole country is vaccinated. Much will depend on how the Phuket experiment works out.

<<Quarantine requirements will be waived for vaccinated foreign visitors arriving on the resort island of Phuket from July 1, the first destination to reopen since the Covid-19 pandemic struck last year.

I would think Brazil would be on the list of 14 days but this country never stop to amaze me :)

If I believe the news, 75% of the French are infected with the English variant. That's why France reopened their borders with the UK, because the English variant is not considered a variant anymore but became the "standard" virus.

because countries are purely based on race.... I’ve got a Korean friend who was born in Kenya and holds a Kenyan + South Korean passport. Michael *********
Brasil?
What happened to that strain in Iberia (Spain and then Portugal)? Did Brits in Costa Del Sol spread that?
Central & Eastern Europe has some of the highest fatality rates in the world.

So the 10 days instead of 14 days is a done deal, but has the been any confirmation of 7 days for those that are vaccinated?
Eddie ************
It's probably just for show. They know these countries are irrelevant in visiting Thailand anyways and they just listed them to show that they are doing something to reduce the risk.

This is only africa. Are many others from europe and more

Lol 14 days 10 days 1 day its all the same to me not coming until NO quarantine. Every country is run by Muppets .But Sweden is the own country with a brain.

OP@Jeremy ********
done it twice already but luckily enough got job that pays me for my time in thereBobby ********
Much better. I did expect to see UK, but thinking about it, they have handled the vaccine roll out admirably. I think they're already in the 40 year olds.
Michael ********
OP@Bobby *******
yes they could have at least banned the English not the Celtic nations though.

Amazed (and pleased) not to see uk on there.
