: Thailand would not require tourists – including from China – to undergo pre-departure COVID-19 test.
“There will be no special measures for travellers entering the kingdom because all travellers entering Thailand must be treated the same,” he said at a press conference here yesterday.“It is to ensure that they can meet the costs of their treatment if their test in Thailand is positive,” he said. China, which has long pursued a zero-COVID policy, announced the relaxation of its inbound quarantine measures starting Jan 8.
Anutin said the ministries also agreed that tourists who wish to get COVID-19 booster shot in Thailand can do so.
