TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking guidance on the correct sequence of steps for traveling from the UK to Thailand as an unvaccinated individual in June. The proposed order includes booking a flight, obtaining insurance, performing an RTK test 72 hours prior to departure, and securing a Thai Pass and tourist visa. Commenters advised on the importance of applying for the visa ahead of time, noting that a tourist visa requires prior application and processing that may take up to 15 days, suggesting the ease of applying for an e-visa from the UK.

Thank you for the information

Apply for visa first before you book anything, or you might be relying on visa-exempt entry

As you are in the UK you can apply for the e visa it's very straightforward and quick, that gives you the tourist visa as already mentioned.

If you want an actual tourist visa that you apply for from the consulate in your home country, you need to do that earlier. That's not something you can do in the last 72 hours. It can take up to 15 days to process.

there is no standard 60 day entry.

There's a 60 day single entry tourist visa that you apply and pay for before you come to Thailand, and this can be extended for 30 days inside the country, giving you 90 days total.

Or if you're from an eligible country you can qualify for visa exempt which means you have no visa at all and you are stamped in for 30 days. This can be extended inside the country for 30 days, giving you 60 days total.
