ORIGINAL POSTER

I like surprises. But you know the one place where I absolutely HATE surprises? Airports.

Leaving Friday for the states, from BKK. Ehitad Airways say no COVID test needed, for departing flights. This is very hard to believe, but okay.

Any other advice you’d give on departing this lovely place? Getting here three months ago was hellish, could it be that the journey home might be smoother? I hope so!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The poster expresses anxieties about departing from Thailand to the USA, particularly related to COVID-19 testing requirements. Comments clarify that no COVID test is needed to leave Thailand, but it's essential to check the entry requirements for the USA, as a PCR or rapid test done the day before the flight is required. Additional insights emphasize checking airline policies and the current regulations on the US government's website.

Entering USA requires a PCR or rapid test (viral test) done the day before the flight. Doesn't have to be within 24 hours just the day before the flight.

it must be done no earlier than the day before the flight, but can certainly be done the day of the flight, too.

Nothing required to leave Thailand. If anything is required it will be as determined by the airline and the country you're flying to and transiting in, if applicable.
