Thai protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban has promised that his supporters will not obstruct advance voting for next week's general election.
Mr Suthep says protesters will not try to stop people from casting their ballots from Sunday, but will demonstrate outside polling stations.
They want the PM to step down and the political system to be reformed.
But the government says the vote will go ahead, despite a Constitutional Court ruling that it can be delayed.
A state of emergency is in place as the authorities struggle to cope with the unrest.
Outbreaks of violence
Protesters, who started their campaign in November, want to install an unelected "people's council" to run the country until the political system is changed.
They say PM Yingluck Shinawatra's government is being influenced by her brother, exiled former leader Thaksin Shinawatra.
At least nine people have died since the wave of protests started last year.
