ORIGINAL POSTERHello! My friends are flying in from Hanoi to Bangkok today via Thai Airway. Does anybody know if today the airport/airline will check all the health cert and insurance strictly?
Thanks alot!
Thanks alot!
TLDR : Answer Summary
Travelers are advised that Thai Airways will strictly check health certificates and insurance before boarding flights from Hanoi to Bangkok. Essential documents must be presented during check-in in Hanoi; failure to do so will result in being denied boarding. New requirements include a valid health certificate and health insurance coverage of USD 100,000.

Yes. Meet the following requirements before you can enter Thailand.

Friends of a friend at Birmingham UK Friday, because they would be landing in BKK after the new enforcement.

You should be checked before boarding the flight

My understanding is it's done by the airline in the city where your boarding airplane not in Thailand... another word for airline needs to see this documentation or they won't let you board the plane.

Please keep us posted, I should take the same flight later at this week (if not all flights cancelled), so would be good to hear how it went at Hanoi and BKK please

My friend supposed to fly back to thailand this morning with thai airways and got rejected by the airline staff at check-in counter because the health certificate that she has wasn't the correct one. Even tho she has valid NON-O Visa.
