Bangkok Embassy re-opens

Monday, 24 May 20103 min read

Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has reopened its embassy in Bangkok, after its closure last week due to the ongoing unrest in the Thai capital.

The latest DFAT Smartraveller advice continues to warn Australians not to travel to Bangkok (excluding Suvarnabhumi International Airport) due to the “ongoing risk of sporadic
violence” and are told to avoid the Rachaprasong area in the centre of the city.
Although the situation is coming under control the Thai government has extended its curfews in 24 provinces, including Bangkok, to cover last night and tonight from 11pm to 4am .
