“The Government of Thailand continues to take measures to counter the spread of the coronavirus in the country. The decision was made from 18 to 31 March 2020 to suspend the work of most entertainment venues, bars, theaters, cinemas, massage parlors, spas and fitness rooms in Bangkok and neighboring provinces. There is information that similar measures may be introduced in a number of other regions of the country, the embassy said.

As of March 18, 2020, the airports of Bangkok and other cities are open for entry, exit and transit transfers.

“At the same time, it is impossible to rule out tougher measures taken by the Government of Thailand as the situation with the spread of the coronavirus develops,” the embassy said.

In accordance with the information published by the Russian Foreign Ministry on March 17, 2020, we strongly recommend that Russian citizens in Thailand take advantage of the continuing opportunity to leave the country and return to Russia without hindrance, and those who planned to travel here in the near future refrain from it.

For consultations on returning home, the Embassy of the Russian Federation in Thailand asks to contact the Rostourism hotline +7-499-678-1203 and the situational crisis center of the Russian Foreign Ministry +7-495-587-8860.
