youre welcome , cos i know how worrying all the stuff you read can be.

but yes , the 14 days is a must..

i was positive from 31st dec to my fit to fly test on 23rd jan! then negative in thailand on 26th.

@Matty *******

things are a lot more relaxed here than people are making out.

i think even thailand is starting to accept that omicron is not too bad and now the dominant strain..if people are made to isolate most now seem to be at a hotel ..hospital only for sick or vunerable

@Matty *******

yes i leave phuket tomorrow.

i heard all these horror stories as well and just got to the stage of " bugger it" see what happens.

it really was not an issue..both the airline and immigration had no problem with the nhs certificate and my positive test.

when i got there i gave the lady at the test centre a copy and she took details so if my day 1 test was positive it would be on record that id recovered.

also at hotel they did same..lady at hotel told me thered be no problem unless i had a very bad fever .

ironically i tested negative in thailand!!

but i felt confident i would be ok if positive.

it makes you wonder why you even need tests if youre recovered! anyway, the link to follow is latest thai govt guidance..last para makes it clear.

hope this helps!

just make sure you are recoverd for at least 14 days..thats what they check.

i tested positive 31st dec..was deemed recovered on 10th january and flew on 25th

i used mine last week with a positive pcr.

no problem on qatar airways and no problem entering thailand.

after all, thats what it is for so why pay 100 quid for some random doctor to say youre ok?

@Stuart ********

i suppose the benefit of arriving later is you can go to bed and hopefully get up next day and head off!.

im in thailand now and the general mood seems to be relaxing now that omicron is the dominant strain and is proving to be less serious.

i think even here they are realising things have to get back to " normal".

so keep looking because even by march they might have relaxed the rules .

what might be an issue for you is you may not be deemed recovered for 14 days? that is the thai rules.

i was recovered on 11 jan and entered on 26th
