The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has immediately removed Thailand from its non-compliance list, acknowledging the Doping Control Agency of Thailand (DCAT)'s full adherence to the World Anti-Doping Code 2021.
This decision overturns the October 2021 ban, which prohibited Thailand from raising its national flag at international competitions (excluding the Olympic and Paralympic Games), now allowing the flag to fly at all international events.
