Thaiger Posted December 18, 2021 #125928 Share Posted December 18, 2021 While Thailand has flung open the doors on its airports to international travellers since November 1, land border checkpoints are not nearly as widely open. Now, authorities prepare security for a popular border between Thailand and Laos at Nong Khai in time for the Christmas and New Year’s holidays. Starting December 24, the Nong Khai border checkpoint will be opened with special protocols in order to prevent the transmission of Covid-19. The opening will mark the first land border to operate using the Test & Go entry scheme that only requires fully vaccinated travellers entering to take an RT-PCR Covid-19 […] The story Nong Khai land border opening to Test & Go scheme December 24 as seen on Thaiger News.

Rookiescot Posted December 19, 2021 #126283 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Oh bugger. This means the police road blocks everywhere will be going back up. They stopped doing them because their most lucrative source of income (Laos driving cars from Laos with no Thai road tax) dried up.
