In a typical last minute turn of event just hours before government regulations are due to go in efect, they're changed again. Unvaccinated travels can still travel to Thailand without any restrictions but may be subject to testing upon arrival.

TLDR : Answer Summary
Recent updates indicate that unvaccinated travelers can still enter Thailand without restrictions, although they may face testing upon arrival. This abrupt change just hours before the regulations were set to take effect has sparked confusion and frustration among travelers, especially with reported instances of individuals being denied boarding for lacking vaccination proof.

According to

@sakamoto_kappei

, about 15 tourists on his Turkish Airlines TK64 flight that left Istanbul last night were refused boarding. They didn’t know about the sudden entry rules change. He added there were no checks on arrival in Bangkok. So they could have come

However some passengers (around 15) could't board in Istanbul as they had no vaccination proof.

Only in Thailand it just shows you what you are dealing with and you can't trust this government with anything that they say 🤣😅

I get this with fairly frequently. If I know the address is sound and the entity, I just override it.

your computer is probably infected now😁

Good, hopefully the non vax people will stop complaining now.

@Steven *****
people are in the right to complain about the thai government

If they have paid for the holiday then they are told that the rules are changed

Because the thai government is going to let the Chinese in Thailand for money 💰
Steve ********
Just don't test positive! Quarantine jail for ten days!
Paul *******
Maybe maybe not. If yes then 5 days quarantine.
Jeremy ********
That’s going to make getting to the baggage claim a total nightmare
Leon ********
Where is this fake news coming from ?

The government offices are closed on Sunday !

And the ministry of tourism can only get this signed of by the cabinet !
Paul *******
It's not. The civil aviation authority of Thailand has outlined these rules. It's a done deal for Air travel at least. No idea about entry by land.
Alison *******************
@Leon *******
It is called a notice to airmen sent by the Thai civil aviation authority directly to the airlines. Exactly the same as the first notice.

@Leon *******
