TLDR : Answer Summary

To enter Thailand from the UK, you need to provide a negative RT-PCR test taken within 72 hours prior to your flight. If you are transiting through Singapore, the test must be taken within 48 hours.

You have to have a negative RT-PCR test within 72 hours of your flight. (48 if transiting via Singapore).

I got the RT-pcr at a local lab. Results within 12 hours. The airline didn’t seem to care but they did check for it at Bangkok airport. The PCR test you’ll receive here is also the RT-PCR.
