TLDR : Answer Summary

The Certificates of Entry (COEs) will remain valid after the introduction of the Thailand Pass system on November 1. Travelers, both vaccinated and unvaccinated, have specific entry protocols: unvaccinated individuals must follow quarantine procedures, while fully vaccinated travelers will be able to enter via the sandbox scheme or without quarantine, depending on their country of origin. However, many embassies are still unclear about the final guidelines until the official announcement on November 1.

Right... tell that to the Thai embassies/consulates in LA, New York, Paris, Berlin... neither of them has any idea what is going to happen until Nove 1. They have yet to receive their orders from upon high.

- First, Thai and foreign nationals who have not been fully vaccinated may enter Thailand, but will have to undergo mandatory quarantine in the Alternative Quarantine (AQ) system.

- Second, fully vaccinated Thai and foreign nationals may enter Thailand via the sandbox scheme, which currently includes four provinces and will be expanded to cover 17 provinces on 1st November.

- The upcoming new channel to launch Thailand’s reopening on 1st November is for fully vaccinated travelers from a list of countries to enter Thailand with no quarantine. Relevant agencies are now considering this list and CCSA will inform you as soon as the list has been finalized.
