The United Kingdom's Foreign Office has lifted its warning against non-essential travel to Thailand.

 

The decision reflects "a reduction in the level of political violence across the country in the last few days", the Foreign Office said yesterday.

 

The UK is maintaining its warning on travel to Bangkok, however, because it deems the situation to be more volatile.

 

Travellers should continue to exercise caution throughout Thailand and avoid demonstrations, the office said.

 

British nationals currently in Thailand, or those who are planning to travel here, should also closely monitor the office's travel advice.

 

"The situation is unpredictable and could change rapidly," the office's statement said.

 

British authorities also advise against travel to the Preah Vihear temple area and all but essential travel to the restive southern provinces of Pattani, Yala, Narathiwat and Songkhla.

 

Other countries, including the US, Canada, Australia, Germany, New Zealand, Japan, China, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan, still advise against all travel to Thailand.
