The night-time curfew currently in place in Bangkok and the designated areas in Chon Buri, Rayong, and Samut Prakan will be lifted from 23.00 Hrs. on 31 October, 2021.
This is to facilitate the 1 November quarantine-free reopening to vaccinated visitors from approved countries.

In addition to the lifting of the night-time curfew, businesses and venues across all 17 destinations regardless of their colour zoning are allowed to open under the health and safety precautions, including universal prevention and COVID-free setting.
Events and activities prone to the spread of disease are allowed to be held, but the number of attendees must not exceed 500 people. Some events and activities will need to seek advance permission from the respective authorities in the areas.
All types of entertainment venues, including pubs, bars, and karaoke shops are to remain closed. However, these businesses may undertake preparation to be ready for reopening.
