If I tried to do a border run w/ Thai friend I’d still have to do quarantine, yes? Would plan to do this around March 2022.
Answer summary
The initial inquiry is about the necessity of quarantine for a border run from Thailand around March 2022 with a Thai friend. Responses indicate that current travel restrictions do not allow for border runs without flying out and returning via the ThailandPass, and that quarantine requirements depend on vaccination status and the country of departure. Moreover, planning for March is premature due to the evolving nature of travel restrictions.

March is way too far away to plan for. We don't even know what the situation will be in January and things change weekly.

no border is open right now. But there is one set to open soon with Laos for entry into Thailand but you can't enter Laos from Thailand yet so not very useful. Things will change a lot in the next few months so there may be options.

There are no borders open. You’d have to fly out and then get the ThailandPass to get back in. Whether you’d need to quarantine is dependant on your vaccination status and the country you’re coming in from.

there was a post today about a Malaysian border opening, but seemingly you could potentially enter Malaysia but you then couldn’t leave. I can’t find the post now so don’t really know the details. Cambodia is open for flying in to without quarantine if you’re vaccinated, but I’m not sure if there’s any flights available.
