No Quarantine between Cambodia and Thailand

There is to be no quarantine between Cambodia and Thailand as the Kingdom is added to the expanded list of countries that may enter the country, as well as Cambodia announcing reciprocal measures.

This follows on from the initial Thai program to let in vaccinated nationals form ten countries, which has now been increased to 46, which now includes Cambodia.

No Quarantine for Cambodians visiting Thailand – What has been announced?

Visitors that wish to enter Thailand must have been vaccinated within 14 days prior to entry into Thailand. They must also book at least one night in an approved hotel (with proof of payment provided). 

On arrival a PCR test needs to be undertaken, then after spending one night in a the hotel and if the result is negative, then they may travel around Thailand freely.

What else is in the fine print?

Aside from being vaccinated 14 days prior to arrival, visitors must also produce a negative PCR test taken within 72 hours of arrival into the country. Tourists and, or business travelers are also required to have insurance cover valued at at least $50,000, although it does not have to be with a local provider. 

No Quarantine between Cambodia and Thailand

According to a report from VOD, Cambodian Prime-Minister Hun Sen ordered that Thai and foreign travelers be allowed to fly into the country without needing to quarantine, with him stating that “We can start to have a principle of reciprocity with Thailand. We [will be able to] go to Thailand without quarantining, [so] Thais entering our [country], they do not need to quarantine either. So [we] can begin to reopen flights for passengers from Thailand, including those coming through the country, as we already have a principle of one visa being usable in the two countries,”

The PM further added in the Telegram voice-recoding that Cambodia should also resume flights from Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines, although all of these countries still have Covid based travel restrictions in place.

Can I book my holiday yet?

It should be noted that while the Thai policy is firmly in place, the Cambodian news came from a late night voice-message, so things are not exactly set in stone. Although with that being said, the future looks bright, at least if you want to travel to Thailand.
