Just to clarify for travel to Thailand now. If you arrive before 6pm and check in your hotel this counts as day 1. So you are required to do 14 nights quarantine. Not 15 nights as many hotels are suggesting.  They are just trying to obtain a extra nights pay.

TLDR : Answer Summary

Travelers arriving in Thailand before 6pm are considered to start their quarantine from that day, requiring a total of 14 nights in quarantine. This counters the 15-night claims some hotels are making, possibly for added revenue.

Umm unless I'm mistaken ASQ is sold as a package deal, not priced out by the day :/

yes it is and many hotels are selling 15 nights 16 days packages but some are selling 14 days packages which are more correct. The exact line from thai immigration at this moment is that arrivals will have to quarantine not less than 14 days

You should have insisted with the hotel management and get 14 nights only.

You didn't mention the date, sorry. This rule started on April 2021.

Anyway you haven't spent 16 days in the room though, on the 16th day you were free to leave from 6.00am 😉

Will I still need to follow the old COVID-19 rules when arriving in Thailand on April 30th?
