What does the 72-hour rule mean for my travel plans if my departure is on the 18th and arrival on the 19th?

Just seen that cut off date may be 15th. If so and you are aloud to use your Pass 72hrs after your set date is that for departure or arrival as I depart on 18th but arrive on 19th? That'll put a spanner in the works 😤🙄

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user seeks clarification on the application of a 72-hour rule in relation to travel dates, specifically whether it applies to departure or arrival, given potential changes in travel requirements.

There is NO OFFICIAL confirmation...only news reports of what may happen...

It's just gets me that you have to go and book and pay for all these things to get a pass and they then can just hang you out to dry 🙄

where else is there to find out what is going on as nobody seems to know 🤔 I take it your not trying to get in 🙄

@Charlie ********
nope, I have lived here since 2004, but my son and family are trying to get in next week. That's why I know that The Thaiger is crap along, with most of the other farang produced websites and 'news' sites.

It's unbelievable isn't it. Tbf to the OP and a boat load of other people on here, you can't blame them for believing the rumours or should I say "proposals", theres that many on here.

Nothing is official yet. Wait until rules are announced AND published in the Royal Gazette.

You'll have to wait until tomorrow but I think your asking about using it 72hrs past the 15th and for test and go I have to say no
Stuart *********
We’ll have to wait until tomorrow for any updates on the rules. Just can’t answer you for now. Good luck.

I know you don't have a crystal ball but do you think the quarantine program AQ will be affected. It's been a long few days waiting to hear.
Stuart *********
@Colleen ********
almost certainly not. They have never deviated from allowing people in (albeit have had 14 days quarantine prior to the 7). My crystal ball broke way back in 2020. Haven’t been able to find a replacement since 😀

@Stuart ********
good news for me then

thanks, it's looking like 7 day quarantine for me ☹️ Do you have go back into the Pass site with a confirmed booking of that all again or is a confirmation letter from hotel enough to get you in?
Stuart *********
@Charlie ********
If they change the rules (which is highly probable) you’ll almost certainly need a new ThailandPass for the ASQ hotel. A guess at this point. Sorry I can’t give you a definitive answer.

l thought you could go with thailand pass l got but need to do quarantine

@Paul **********
sorry I just don’t know what the new rules will be. Perhaps there will be an exemption on existing passes (as some media sites are reporting) but perhaps not. We should know more tomorrow.
