－Thailand Epidemic Information and Latest Entry Regulations－

1. Thailand epidemic information and latest entry regulations:

(1) The Thai government has decided to cancel the requirement that all international tourists aged 18 and above must present a proof of complete vaccination (2 doses) when entering Thailand, or a certificate issued by a qualified medical institution doctor who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 within 6 months and has recovered. Those who have not been vaccinated must provide a doctor's certificate and other relevant regulations.

(2) For passengers who come from a place of departure with COVID-19 control (that is, the place of departure does not allow confirmed persons to enter), the passenger is advised to purchase medical insurance for the treatment of COVID-19 during the travel period in Thailand plus an additional 7 days, with an insurance amount of at least US$10,000. Quarantine officials will conduct random inspections on passengers, and if they find those who have not purchased medical insurance, they must complete the procedure of purchasing medical insurance before entering the immigration customs (if the Thai public health department stipulates otherwise, airlines can allow passengers to pass through customs without showing proof of medical insurance). Failure to purchase medical insurance will not be grounds for being denied boarding.

(3) Students and business travelers entering Thailand can be exempted from purchasing COVID-19 medical insurance if they can prove that their inviters agree to pay for their COVID-19 treatment during their stay in Thailand.

(4) Holders of diplomatic passports and UN passes are exempt from the requirement to purchase medical insurance.

(5) Passengers holding Thai passports and international passengers who are transiting/transiting are exempted from presenting vaccination certificates and purchasing medical insurance requirements.

(6) Airlines must abide by and require passengers to comply with relevant public health regulations, such as wearing face coverings throughout the flight except for meals or emergencies. Passengers who develop symptoms of COVID-19 during the flight are tested upon arrival at their destination.

2. Remind Chinese nationals who enter Thailand with a visa on arrival, they can only stay for 30 days before leaving the country, and they cannot change to a visa for other reasons. The public is advised to check the latest information and regulations at the Thai Immigration Bureau (http://www.immigration.go.th/?p=9228), the official website of Thailand (www.tatnews.org) or the Thai Trade and Economic Office (https://tteo.thaiembassy.org).

3. Although the Thai government officially decriminalized marijuana on June 9, 2022, legal possession and use of related products that comply with laws and regulations can be legally held and used in Thailand. However, according to the regulations of the Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Drug Hazards, marijuana (including its products) is a second-class drug. Anyone who manufactures, transports, sells, brings into the country, possesses and uses it in my country will face severe criminal penalties.

4. Remind Chinese nationals who intend to go to work in Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia to be vigilant. Carefully evaluate job advertisements that offer free air tickets, claim high salaries, and unreasonable conditions. Don’t take chances or ignore them. Otherwise, they will easily fall into the trap of fraudulent groups, causing mental or financial losses, and even affecting their personal safety.

5. If Chinese nationals need assistance in case of emergency in Thailand, please call the emergency contact number of our representative office in Thailand: +66-81-666-4006 (in Thailand, please dial directly: 081-666-4006); or ask domestic relatives and friends to call the "Emergency Contact Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs" at 0800-085-095, or through the Emergency Rescue Line of this Office Taiwan119 or the Tourist Assistance Center of Thailand Tourism Bureau 1672 special line (Chinese, English and Thai), tourist police hotline 1155 for necessary assistance.

2. Chinese nationals who overstay in Thailand will be fined 500 baht a day (up to 20,000 baht). People who go to Thailand should pay attention to the validity of their visas. In addition, the Thai government has implemented new control measures for foreigners who have overstayed in Thailand for more than 90 days:

.Those who have expired for more than 1 year will be prohibited from re-entering within 10 years. (from the date of departure)

3. Customs officers will not inspect each passenger's luggage one by one, but will conduct random inspections in accordance with international practices. Please cooperate with the Chinese.

4. Passenger declaration form (Passenger Declaration Form-No.211) must be filled out and submitted to the customs counter if passengers carry items that need to be declared when entering or leaving the customs at Bangkok International Airport. Violators may be arrested and their items confiscated.

5. It is strictly forbidden to carry items: narcotics, drugs, pornographic books, weapons and pirated works.

6. Restrictions on items exempt from declaration: Each passenger is allowed to carry 1 liter and 1 bottle of alcohol content items, and 200 cigarettes or 250 grams of tobacco products. Passengers who carry more than the above-mentioned quantity and fail to show a legal permit will be confiscated and severely fined.

7. If the same group purchases tobacco and alcohol, please obtain the receipt separately, do not hand it over to one person to carry it, and each purchaser should carry it out of the customs within the specified quantity.

8. On March 5, 2018, the Thai Customs Department published a new announcement on the measures for passengers entering and exiting Thailand. The main points are as follows:

(1). If passengers entering Thailand need to transfer to other domestic airports in Thailand, their luggage must be unpacked or taxed at the final destination airport.

(2). It is required that passengers leaving Thailand who carry expensive cameras, video cameras, watches, laptops, etc. should declare to the customs officers when they leave the country. The declarant submits two photos of the items (including photos showing the model and serial number of the items) when declaring. The customs officers will issue a certificate to the declarant after registration, so that when the declarant returns to Thailand with these items, he can use them to avoid being misunderstood by the customs officers as a new item and being taxed. (Note: This requirement is mainly a reminder for Thai or foreign nationals who have lived in Thailand for a long time and often enter and leave Thailand. There are no relevant penalties, and it has no impact on foreign tourists who come to Thailand with tourist visas.)

(3). The total value of goods for personal or professional use that passengers entering Thailand can carry is changed from the original limit of 100,000 baht to the limit of 200,000 baht.

9. The Ministry of Finance of Thailand promulgated regulations on December 6, 2007. Anyone who carries foreign currency into and out of Thailand, and the amount exceeds 20,000 US dollars must fill in the declaration form and declare it to the customs. There is no upper limit for the amount of Thai baht cash carried by inbound passengers, but the upper limit for departure is 50,000 baht in cash, and cash exceeding the above amount needs to be declared to the customs.

10. When purchasing larger Buddha statues, antiques, and artworks (except for small souvenirs) that require special packaging in Thailand, you must first obtain an "export permit" from the relevant competent authority or store, so that you can submit it to the customs for inspection when you leave the country.
