Under the new order by governor Narong, visitors to Phuket must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, recover from the disease no longer than 90 days ago or have negative RT-PCR or antigen test results confirmed by a hospital or laboratory.

The governor of Phuket signed his order to ease requirements on visitors who can show either their full COVID-19 vaccination or negative test result to enter the island province. The new measure will take effect on Oct 16.

Under the new order by Phuket governor Narong Woonciew, visitors to Phuket must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, recover from the disease no longer than 90 days ago or have negative RT-PCR or antigen test results confirmed by a hospital or laboratory.



Visitors can take their antigen test kits certified by the Food and Drug Administration to conduct a test at a local hospital or laboratory and then show their test result which will be considered as valid for 7 days.

The rule spares children aged not over 6 who travel with their guardian and the people who arrive on ambulances. (TNA)
