URGENT: Has anyone had any issues with their Covid PCR test being outside of the 72 hour mark? my understanding was that you had to get your RESULTS within 72 hours of first international departure. The website says it has to be conducted AND get results within 72 hours of first flight. if thats the case, then i am off by 2 hours(test was taken 74 hours before first flight). Is this something they let slide? Or have they enforced this pretty heavily? I'm headed to thailand tomorrow.
TLDR : Answer Summary
A traveler is concerned about their Covid PCR test results being 74 hours before their international flight, which exceeds the 72-hour requirement for entering Thailand. Community responses emphasize the importance of adhering to the 72-hour rule, which is enforced by airlines, and suggest considering obtaining a new test as airlines may deny boarding. Users shared personal experiences, highlighting that strict adherence to timing is often required and recommended reaching out for a new test to avoid any issues.
