The Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) will on Friday consider further easing of visitor entry controls, including a shorter quarantine period for unvaccinated people and ending antigen tests.

The meeting would discuss changes to travel restrictions based on guidelines given by Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha.

The Public Health Ministry has proposed a relaxation of Covid-19 testing measures for tourists entering the country.

First, the quarantine period for unvaccinated visitors may be reduced. The Test & Go entry scheme for fully vaccinated tourists and Thai returnees may also be adjusted now that other countries have eased entry restrictions.

The CCSA would look into these issues before making a decision.

As the number of infections from overseas arrivals dropped, the Test & Go scheme, which gave more emphasis to vaccination, may be eased. Officials may also adjust antigen testing requirements, or not require it at all.

Those issues would be considered on Friday.

Any changes approved at Friday's meeting would probably be effective from May 1.
