The government will launch the “Thailand Pass” system to fast-track procedures for foreign visitors when the country reopens on Monday.
Meanwhile, Bangkok governor Pol Gen Aswin Kwanmuang said the capital is ready to welcome back travellers from overseas as “all” of the city’s residents have received their first shots of a Covid-19 vaccine and 75% have been double vaccinated.
Government spokesman Thanakorn Wangboonkongchana said Thailand is ready to reopen with the Thailand Pass system set to replace certificates of entry (CoE) and reduce unnecessary paperwork.
