"must have already received two doses of either AstraZeneca, Pfizer or Moderna vaccines with the second dose given Before July 31st"...last shot was September 30th...otherwise would have had a go..⌛

fio..The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is making Adjustments to the Thailand Pass system after tourists have had to wait long periods to receive their QR codes. They now are also allowing the use of PDF files to facilitate selection of their initial hotel which is linked to a hospital as well as coordinating with Hotmail service provider Microsoft to address an "issue". In the meantime, applicants are advised to use Non-Hotmail addresses to register.????‍♀️

On a cool clear night aka the last few days I switch off all our outside lights (solar LEDs) and just gaze..Fortunately with our place being at 600 Mts above sea level and on the side of Mae Takrai NP...we have no real local light pollution...Venus is spectacular at the moment..FIO..This Interactive Night Sky Map simulates the sky above Chiang Mai on a date of your choice. You an use it to locate a planet, the Moon, or the Sun and track their movements across the sky. The map also shows the phases of the Moon, and all solar and lunar eclipses...sanuk.. https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/night/@7284935

....Had a go for Jan 2022.....but only got this far...??? Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information) .????‍♀️????

Yes...in CM...just checked..Exemption from Quarantine (Test and Go) Conditions Travelers from eligible countries / territories only Exempted from quarantine after testing negative for COVID-19 (RT-PCR) after arrival in Thailand...etc..etc..

Me thinks....Back to the Drawing Board...Pencils and paper at the ready....

Ref Insurance ..just noticed this.. From a Mr Naruechai Ninnart, Director of the Protection of Thai Nationals Abroad Division, Department of Consular Affairs. At the moment, only Thai Nationals are not required to have Medical insurance as their medical costs will be covered by the National Health Security Office or Social Security office...OK...understood....( However) "We will work with the Public Health Ministry and the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration to extend the Exemption to Foreign Residents who already have Medical Insurance in Thailand," (possibly Roojai? ) For foreign travellers, they have to make sure that their insurance policy does not only specify Covid-19 health coverage. It should cover other kinds of sickness as well as hospitalisation expenses. The CCSA will meet today ( last week) to discuss the Health Insurance Exemption Issues for Foreign Residents. ?

Still some clarifications needed...also timed out quickly...error..code..etc...Suppose give it time...Intending to head back to UK later this month ( got my new extension-re entry)..and fly back end of January...so hopefully by then...chai..

Thai Pass..... Just had a look at it ...seems straight forward BUT.... still has questions needing clarification.....also cut me off rather quickly...so...FIO..... https://tp.consular.go.th/en/policy

Another half an hour....before the world changes...Get the kettle on.....yellow label at the eady..????."Thailand Pass will open for registration for electronic entry certification (Thailand Pass QR code) on November 1, 2021 from 09.00 hrs."

Future PM..Chai..

"Obfuscation" at its very best...amazing Thailand..how do they do it? incredible....

Heading for UK.. News UK Secretary of State for Transport Grant Shapps confirms Sunday October 24th is the date for switch to Lateral Flow Tests instead of more expensive PCR tests..for travellers returning to England ..???? Fully vaccinated travellers will be able to take a photo of their test and Upload for Verification.

Approved vaccines You must have had a complete course of one of the following vaccines at least 14 days before you arrive in England: Oxford/AstraZeneca Pfizer BioNTech Moderna Janssen The day you have your final dose does not count as one of the 14 days. Formulations of these vaccines, such as AstraZeneca Covishield, AstraZeneca Vaxzevria and Moderna Takeda, also qualify as approved vaccine.

Was your Pfizers from Thailand or home country? Hopefully will do the same on visit to UK..EU....maybe US in Dec..with Etihad via Abu Dhabi.They say no problem but will recheck again before leaving...play safe..Never had a test yet.. so LFT should be the one for day 2 in London...ugg..

I re newed my passport just before the whole thing took off ..C 19 and shutdown.Booked on line /internet appointment at Victoria PP office for 11-00 am on the Monday morning following day of arrival on the Sunday from Thailand .Stayed at a local Airport hotel. Picked up an application form at Heathrow Post Office,filled it in and presented at designated time in said PP office ....They have photo-me machines if needed. Then off for coffee and biscuits in Spoons Pub opposite.Got my new 10 year supersized passport around 4 pm same day..Expires in 2029...

Agree.....No....not required....picking up my marriage extension next week at CM...so with a multi re entry could be good until beginning of 2023...

Opposite the Geriatric Hospital...????️‍♂️

Tanee Sangrat, spokesman for the Foreign Affairs Ministry,said that the UK has Not imposed conditions on vaccine production locations, which means those who received two shots of Astra Zeneca vaccines made in Thailand can also enter the UK without the need for quarantine. He said that the delisting is the result of joint efforts by several agencies including the Thai embassy in London, the Foreign Ministry and the Public Health Ministry.

Thailand..UK Added to this list of countries and territories with Approved proof of Vaccination 4am Monday 11 October. If you arrived in England before then, you must follow the rules for people who are not fully vaccinated. If you arrive after that, you can use a Vaccine Certificate to prove your Vaccination status.........Yellow C 19 Thailand Ministry of Health.Vaccination "Passport"...????

For..Fully vaccinated travellers entering or returning to England./UK... The Day 2 PCR test requirement was being Scrapped in favor of a cheaper lateral flow/antigen Test. With just one lateral flow test required, the cost would drop to as low as £33 each.. Unfortunately this had been delayed until further notice due to lack of Antigen Test kits. ????‍♀️????‍♀️ The Good News however is you no longer need a Pre-departure test to enter the United Kingdom.(although might be worth getting one just in case)

We got our second Pfizer shots at the Prom on Thursday 30 th. Sept.early...Afterwards went to NKP and registered for the PP.Was told only had 150 left so move..Came back to Promenada for a bucket of KFC (spicy) to take home to family and by that time the Vacs session was over with the final tally...count of 503. posted ..for said mornings session. Picked up ou 2 x yellow books yesterday at NKP.....then Thai lunch at Central Airport P...very quiet...some bank transfers..buy some medical equipment blood sugar test kits..etc...then home to check with our builders working on friends house..small pickup repaired ..water circulation flush out and then to shop ....until 9.pm..With Thailand now on Green List ...all in all a good day..

Heading back fo Hogmanay...yes..
