I arrived yesterday. It took a couple of hours at the airport, which irritated me after travelling for 16 hours. I did worry before leaving. But everything is fine now. Make sure that you have multiple copies of everything. They were asking people where they were going to stay after the quarantaine hotel, and even wanted documents about your booking for that. That was the only difference at immigration compared to previous times. I told them that I was going to stay at a girlfriends condo, so I did not have documents of that, only the address, and that was enough for them.

If you are worried, it’s not the travelling that is the problem it is the increasing variant COVID in Bangkok that has the authorities so worried (and me) that they are planning to set up 10 field hospitals across Bangkok giving 3000 beds.

Last week the first plane with tourists from Germany arrived.

With being vaccinated can you quarantine for your 7 days in bkk or just in certain cities 🤷‍♂️

Pattaya shops closed again.

Just to update..

I’m on the special tourist visa, you can stay up to 9 months with extending every 3 months. Ends in October though. It was a breeze coming in, but I was there for a couple hours because it was peak time, around 11am. A bunch of flights came in all at the same time but they have chairs in order and washrooms close buy so it was nice ☺️ I’m still in quarantine, but so happy I came.

Have necessary documentation, patience, more money than clothes. If you have a newer notebook computer, don't bring the box it came in, you would probably be charged import tax on it. Real Thailand is to be found in smaller, less touristy cities and villages, but that is only my personal preference. Metered taxi out of the airport is safest for not getting ripped like a rookie. Night train north is lovely. BYO.

Not at all.

Traveled 3 weeks ago, smoothest I have come through airport in 22 years of coming here. Everything was well organised and slick

Chill out mate it’s easy and really well organized I was of the plane and in my quarantine hotel 45 mins tops 🙏🙏🙏

Has the global pandemic ended with international borders open ??

Good luck 🍀

I arrived back in Bangkok in Oct last year after getting stuck in the UK in March. So glad I made it back. I cant think of a more organised, civilised and pleasant place to be during this world cirsis.

Yes, bad experiences a couple of times before the Pandemic.

Thai Immigration "is like a box of chocolates....you never know what your gonna get."

Good luck!

BKK is a well oiled machine. Very quick, very smooth, very organised.

smooth as silk

Don’t even think about travelling to Thailand for at least 12 months

If u do and u have a problem u deserve what u get

I flew from Manchester 🇬🇧 via Dubai. Was absolutely fine. As per other answers, just make sure you have all the required paperwork.

Safe travels ✈️ 😊

Turn back quickly! Go back now! There's a virus and it's killin everyone, and I think aliens have landed too aaaaahhhhhh

It’s very slick here much better than most p. As long as you have all the necessary paperwork you will have no issues whatsoever so check you have it all in place

It will be fine a well prepared procedure

Best of luck

I had no difficulties or delays whatsoever.

I was one of the first off the aircraft in Bangkok and was through immigration, health control, etc. and in a taxi in less than 20 minutes.

As Hans has said. Just relax

Like all time in Life - if you have all OK - all want be OK!

There will be an official news later today about what will happen at Bangkok due to the upsurge of Cov cases

Assuming you have all your paperwork done well, and carry a couple of paper copies of everything, it is all very smooth. I arrived yesterday and it was all very thorough, well organized and easy. The ATM’s directly after passport control are functioning.

Not at all.. The process of getting through the airport is a breeze, assuming you've got all your documents in order.

Which airport? Where are you flying from?
