BANGKOK, June 19 (The Nation Thailand/ANN): The easing of travel restrictions has brought as many as 1.61 million tourists to Thailand so far this year, up 3,895 per cent from 2021.

Tourist arrivals especially surged after the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA)'s scrapped the Test & Go scheme from May 1 and from June 1 allowing unvaccinated or partly vaccinated tourists to enter the Kingdom by just providing a negative ATK or RT-PCR test result taken within 72 hours of departure.
