AGODA.com only has SHA and not ASQ. Please advise.
All of these hotels are acceptable when you travel to Thailand.
Can i directly book for quarantine with the hotel listed in ASQ or through hotel.com
Dear Ali,
Good day.
Right now, only Agoda.com has the accreditation to book and not Hotel.com
Thank you.
Really want my opinion. I think Thailand Authority are putting these restrictions in place, just to create economics and not really consider the individuals needs. I, as a foreigner, would very easily self isolate, without the added expense of hotels.
Dear Steven,
Thank you for your comment. You may follow this page: https://www.facebook.com/thailandprd/ and you may share your ideas and opinion on that page.
Have a good day.
Is it possible to cross the land border from Vientiane to Nong Kai with the correct paper work and do quarantine in Nong Khai?
Dear Lydia,
Good day.
Right now, all entries to Thailand requires a certificate of entry or COE. At the moment, COEs are only issued for air travel and not for land travel.
Thank you.
can i travel to koh Samui after i complete my ASQ In Bangkok if we are unvaccinated. what are the rules that apply once we get to koh samui do we then have to do another ASQ. we arrive to thailand around the 25th of june. thank you in advance
Dear Lauren,
Good day.
For those traveling from Bangkok to Samui, you need to show a negative COVID test result, not more than 72 hrs before the flight’s arrival in Samui.
Thank you.
Hi I am from India I wish to travel Thailand in mid june for one month what are the requirement I have not been vaccinated .
Dear Manav,
Good day.
The Thai Embassy is closed in India so the issuance of the visa and certificate of entry is not possible at this time.
Thank you.
I was wondering what the law is in reference to quarantine as a minor. Are minors able to fly into Thailand with all required documents (visa etc) and stay in an asq hotel ?
Dear Hayden,
Good day.
Unaccompanied minors are not allowed to travel by air on their own and stay in quarantine without any guardian. I think it is not a smart idea during COVID 19 pandemic.
Thank you.
Hello, me and my girlfriend are fully vaccinated and plan to arrive on July 9th. Will we still have to book an asq before we go for our COE? If not what other things can be foregone?
Dear Chase,
Yes, you still need to book for an ASQ hotel to get the COE unless your flight that arrives on July 9th will land directly in Phuket from Singapore or from Doha.
Thank you.
I am fully vaccinated US citizen (Visa Exemption) and was planning to visit as ASQ tourist to Thailand in September 2021 for 30 days. I had submitted Certificate of Entry C. O.E. to Thai embassy, with required uploaded documents, and purchased AXA Covid travel insurance. The Royal Thai Consultant rejected my application due to regulations to enter Thailand might be change according to date of travel. Thai Embassy said to check back 15 days before travel. Do I need C. O. E. to enter Thailand or just T8 form?
Dear Mark,
Good day.
The reason it was rejected is that, the 45-day Visa Exemption is only valid until September 30, 2021. This Visa exemption has not been returned to normalcy. Also, it is too early to apply for COE right now. Please apply 1 months before the flight.
Thank you.
Hi Rex,
Few questions:
Will the ASQ be lifted on July 1st? If so, is this a firm arrangement or is there a possibility that the ASQ (and the 7 days of quarantine) will be required after 7/1/21?
Is proof of vaccination required to enter the country?
It is my understanding that the “Fit to Fly” issued by your (my) doctor is no longer required, as of 4/1/21. Is it possible that this can change?
I am in the US. Would calling the Thai Embassy provide me with the most accurate information? I would rather book a trip that is not subject to change.
Dear Ven,
The ASQ will be lifted or no longer required starting January 1, 2022. However, some islands such as Phuket will waive the ASQ requirement for vaccinated travelers if they enter Phuket starting July 1, 2021.
Fit-to-fly certificate is no longer required since April 1, 2021.
Thank you.
I am fully vaccinated and plan to arrive on June 27th 2021 in Phuket. Will I need to spend a full 7 days in quarantine or will I be permitted to exit quarantine on July 1st?
Dear BK,
Since the arrival date is June 27th, you must quarantine for 7 days and no, you cannot leave the quarantine on July 1st. You must complete the 7-day quarantine. If you would not want to do the quarantine, please arrive on or after July 1st.
Thank you.
i AM PLANING GOING TO Thailand ON MAY 6TH AND MY FIANCEEA WILL BE ARRIVING ON MAY 12TH, my QUESTION IS : ARE WE ALLOWED TO SHARE SAME ROOM? i HAVE BEEN vaccinated AND i LIVE IN Florida USA and SHE LIVES IN Cebu Philippines.
Dear Olin,
Good day.
Since you are not arriving together and you are not legally married, you are not allowed to quarantine in the same room.
Thank you.
Staring from April 1, 2021, the mandatory quarantine will be reduced to 10 days, for most travelers, may I ask that how many times do they have the COVID -19 test ?
Dear Sajjamann,
Good day.
Everyone needs a COVID test to enter Thailand. That has not changed. What has changed was, the vaccinated passenger entering Thailand can get a reduced quarantine of 7 days and the un-vaccinated passenger will get 10 days mandatory quarantine.
Thank you.
So can I not share a room with my friend who is going to travel with me? To reduce cost?
Dear John,
Good day.
Yes, only married couples are allowed to quarantine in the same room.
Thank you.
I’m looking for a quarantine hotel in Chiang Mai.
Dear Peter,
Good day.
At the moment the only ASQ hotel in Chiang Mai is The Muk Lagoon Hotel. If you wish to quarantine in this hotel, your international flight must land in Chiang Mai. if your flight lands in Bangkok, you must quarantine in Bangkok or Pattaya.
Thank you.
Can I share a room with my child? She is 16 years old. We have the same surname.
Dear Yoshiko,
Yes, you may book a family room. It depends on the hotel what would be the arrangement.
Thank you.
I live and work in Thailand and have a non-B visa. I would like to travel to the USA for the month of July. I will get vaccinated in the USA. When I return to Thailand in August, do I need to quarantine? Do I need to purchase covid insurance?
Please advise,
Dear Ken,
Good day.
Yes, you will quarantine for at least 7 days when you return to Thailand in August. Yes, you need to have a COVID 19 insurance covering the validity of the visa that you have. It could be 3, 6 months.
Thank you.
Hi
I am from the UK- If I become vaccinated in my home country and show documentation can I be allowed in the country with out quarantine?
Dear Naz,
Good day.
As of right now, vaccinated travelers are still required to do a quarantine for 7 days at an ASQ Hotel.
Thank you.
Hello Rex,
We can’t seem to find a direct flight to Phuket so we have a transit in Bangkok. Do we quarantine in Phuket or Bangkok?
Thanks!
F
Dear Fouad,
Good day.
If you would like to quarantine in Phuket, you may book a flight that flies from Singapore to Phuket. If the only flight you can find is transiting or landing in Bangkok, yes, you need to do your quarantine in Bangkok also.
Thank you.
Hey . I wanted to know if any hotel accepts unmarried couples?
Dear Tal,
Good day.
Yes, the ASQ Hotels will accept unmarried couples but you need to book two separate rooms.
Thank you.
Why do you insist on travelers being married? I live with my partner, will fly together with my partner and yet on arrival I cannot quarantine with my partner. That’s a deal breaker for me and will skip Thailand until you move into the 21st century.
Dear Richard,
Good day.
I do not thing it is insisting to be married. It is insisting on letting only married partners to be allowed to quarantine in the same hotel room. If you are not married but you can provide paperwork that you are common-law partners, then you will be allowed to stay in the same ASQ hotel room.
Thank you.
Hello, my local airport flight departs in the afternoon, and after an overnight layover, my international flight to Thailand departs the following afternoon. For purposes of the 72 hours pre-departure limit for covid testing, which flight is considered the departure flight? Thank you.
Dear John,
Good day.
The COVID test and Fit to Fly must be conducted within 72 hours prior to your international Flight.
Thank you.
Having just flown in, in our experience, the COVID -19 negative result needs to be 72-hours from departure, so flying on Wednesday from London this week meant my swab sample could not have been before Monday and my result no later than the morning of my flight. My swab was dated the Monday (AM) and cert was dated the Tuesday (eve) and both were fine by the time we landed in Thailand. What we weren’t prepared for was the requirements of the transit country; in my case, Frankfurt. For example, they required the certificate to be within 48-hours. Fortunately we were within the time frame, however, there was additional paperwork to be completed for that transit/arrival, before we could check in, which we hadn’t realised.
There are COVID tests available at the airport (UK) however, the appointments aren’t available for “urgent” cases so you can end up having to miss the flight (if you don’t have all the paperwork and are asked to get an additional test done).
For info, the process when you arrive is swift and very organised. Temp and doc check. Through to an official for a further check. Then onto immigration and passport control. Afterwards, collect your bags and as you enter the arrival hall you’ll be greeted by someone from your hotel who will take you straight there (where there are also checks and processes – again very swift).
