Maybe it's a preventive measure from opening the country. Chinese tourists Like other countries do, such as Chinese tourists entering Japan or Europe

I think this statement from the head of the Epidemiology Department is what has got everyone worked up. This is his proposal but whether it's adopted or not will be known tomorrow

not really , but the post you're talking about is one ( one ) that I'm talking about.

Now the poster is telling people he's selling everything and moving out of Thailand.

Even a moderator is telling people it will affect everyone too .

Even it will only affect people coming from China.

Perfectly fine by me if that becomes true. Show vaccination and be done with it + temporarily testing for those coming from China. 👍

I agree with that. The vax certificate is easy. We don't want to see a return to all that 72 hour, 48 hour testing nonsense and the mandatory insurance crap. The whole point of the vax certificate was to circumnavigate all that rubbish.

Agreed on one hand. On the other hand, precise, definite information is relatively hard to come by in the country, thus rumors is at times all we can work with. Either way, might have been more helpful to make your case under that respective last post (I assume you meant the one suggesting Thai borders may be closed again) than in a separate unrelated post. Either way: cheers.

let’s be serious I think what people are referring to are additional requirements for entry into Thailand from China. Fact this is being discussed by Thai government and there is a meeting planned for tomorrow. We don’t yet what these requirements will be but insurance, proof of vaccination and testing have all been mentioned. We will see.
