UPDATE May 1, 2021:  On April 29, 2021 – the Thai Government and Department of Health announced the Golf Quarantine will be suspended effective May 1, 2021 due to the current rise in COVID cases in Thailand.  We will update when further information is available for the restart of Golf Quarantine.

On December 7, 2020, the Thai Government and Department of Health approved GQ (Golf Quarantine) where international visitors can visit Thailand and complete their 12-day quarantine at an approved and certified golf resort. During the quarantine, golfers are able to play golf under strict safety and hygiene measures similar to those standards in ASQ (alternative state quarantine) hotels.  There are 6 golf resorts that have been approved to accept quarantine golfers.  Once certain criteria is met, there is a 12 day processing time from the golf course before booking can be finalized. More details will follow when available.

Golfers will still be required to have the following:

  1. VISA – please check with the Royal Thai Embassy in home country. There are 61 countries that are VISA exempt.  For those countries with a 30 days visa exemption – you are allowed an additional 15 days that you are in quarantine
  2. Certificate of entry (COE) to Thailand from the embassy before traveling to Thailand
  3. Fit to Fly Health Certificate issued a maximum of  72 hours prior to departure
  4. Negative COVID-19 test result issued a maximum of 72 hours prior to departure.
  5. Medical insurance covering all expenditures of medical treatment, including COVID-19, while traveling to Thailand in an amount of at least 100,000 USD (the insurance must cover the whole duration of stay in Thailand).

Each resort has specific rules and regulations – please see the details below. Some courses have not released package and pricing details.  We will update this information as it becomes available.

    • We dealt with GolfAsian via their Australian representative, Prestige Golf Tours. Couldn't be happier with either of these companies, or recommend them highly enough. All of the transfers from airports, hotels and golf clubs went perfectly. Their staff were a dream to deal with. Their prices are very reasonable. From small things like free water on the bus each day, we just couldn't have been happier.

    • Just had 17 of my members from Mt Derrimut Melb, Aust play and stay in Hua HIN through Golfasia.
      From pick up in Bangkok to being dropped off to head home, Ian Morgan and his staff could not have been more helpful. Courses were amazing.

      Stay Balanced

    • Just returned from Thailand golfasian could not do enough for us. This the second time we have used them for our golf holidays and because of the current situation with the outbreak of covid 19 we had to make changes at very short notice. Kim dealt with all our changes in a very professional manner. Thank you once again and look forward to booking with you again in the future. Johnny

I will use them again for sure very professional and very knowledgeable. There was one course I wanted to play that they said not to because it was in bad shape, I played anyway but they sure where right, was worth it for the views anyway :)
