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 have used Golf Asian for 7 years in a row for our ASIAN Golf Trips, we have played Thailand 4 times, Vietnam, and Indonesia twice

      Their service is of the highest quality, their knowledge of the market is second to none, and most importantly their staff, we have dealt with Lit extensively and she is amazing, and so are all the other staff, including the drivers, and airport meet and greet staff

      Most importantly the value for money you get is second to none

      Keep up the good work

      Will use them again next year
