REUTERS/Soe Zeya TunBANGKOK: Confusion over Thailand's new coronavirus curbs left travellers scrambling on Friday as Thai citizens queued at embassies abroad to get special travel papers and foreigners faced the challenge of producing a negative test for the disease.

That sent hundreds to crowd outside the Thai Embassy in London and legations in other cities, according to witnesses and social media posts. The Thai version of the CAAT order said foreign passengers needed a certificate showing"a test confirming they did not have the COVID-19" while the English version said the document need only say passengers “pose no risk of being infected”.
