Today the Thai-Myanmar border crossing of Mae Sai reopened. It appears to be the first "proper" land border reopening that should allow foreigners and Thais to pass, without being restricted to the border town or a border run (for certain foreign nationalities). However, it is noted that Covid restrictions apply on the Myanmar side and will apply for at least one month before they are re-evaluated. Everyone, Thais and foreigners will need either proof of vaccination or a Covid rapid antigen test done within 48 hours and this proof must be printed out. No electronic copies accepted. Another rapid antigen test will be performed on arrival in Tachilek at a cost of 15000 Myanmar Kyat. Only one day pass holders are exempted from the on arrival test. It is not known whether foreigners, who request a one day pass will be exempted or if this only applies to Thais holding border passes.

The link is only in Thai. I'm sure English language media will soon have their own versions, but they're usually delayed by a day or two.

Ok. You test positive on day 5 you report on the app than what do you do

Hello, I am looking to travel to Phuket from Singapore. I read that I have to do a PCR test on arrival. Does anyone know in the off chance that the PCR test is positive where will I be taken? Government hospital? Will I have a choice of opting for a private hospital? Has anyone experienced quarantine in an isolation facility in Phuket?

Another question from me ..

Who arranges the PCR COVID test at the airport on arrival? Do I have to do this, does my SHA hotel?

Thanks

Hey guys! I flew from Bangkok to Phuket today fresh out of quarantine with no problems. The only thing they asked me at the airport was to download these two apps and that was it! No hassle, no documents asked to be shown, nothing. Just sharing in case anyone had any anxiety about whether or not they should go to Phuket.

Have fun!

Has anyone gotten their visa back from the embassy earlier than what they told you? Did you get a notification or had to go there in person?
