Full vaccinated travellers planning on visiting Thailand will be able to do so at a cheaper rate in regards to covid travel testing.
From March 1, fully vaccinated travellers will be expected to take a day 5 antigen test as opposed to a current PCR test.
Along with the reduction in price, the antigen test can be self-administered, meaning travellers will no longer have to book a hotel to conduct the PCR test and await results.
The initial arrival PCR test for travellers will remain in place.
Reports have also suggested that a reduction to travel insurance for arrivals into Thailand could be as much as $30,000, again , increasing the appeal for foreign travel into the region.
