Sharp

Indeed but airlines would also need to adjust if it was to have a full effect 

Express service has been suspended by VFS a friend applied for his Uk passport  in Jan took 7 weeks.

They are saying 11 weeks on the HMPO website ( Even UK based nationals are having renewal problems apparently)

An emergency document can be applied for ( Due to expired passport whilst abroad)

(BUT YOU WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO HAVE AN INTERVIEW IF ITS TO STAY IN THAILAND RATHER THAN TRAVEL ) 

The above was successful last year for an expat i know stating the reason for the temporary passport being stipulated in the new passport so as to show the immigration pending a extension of stay. ( If memory serves me right he used the Covid excuse and backlog )

Anyhow it worked to my surprise .

( There is a  walk in service at VFS around 1500 b in think)

HOPE THIS HELPS

Good luck

I would suggest China's dragonian methods revolve around the pending Olympics if they weren't on the horizon maybe JUST maybe they would have a different approach! But then again it's CHINA!

I would advice anyone traveling to Thailand, to self-isolate for at least 7 full days before the date of your travel and only go for walks in the park and to get your test. The day before your flight and the day of your flight you could probably relax a bit because if you got covid on either of those days, it probably is not going to show up when you are tested in Thailand.

 

I would also advise you to take plenty of lateral flow tests so you can test yourself should they say you came back positive. If you had self-isolated for those 7 days, you would have quite a strong argument to claim that any positive was false and you want another PCR test done by another hospital.

 

Please remember you have rights and no one is going to the Bangkok Hilton for expressing your rights in a calm and dignified manner.

 

Chok dee ????

 

Disclaimer: I understand for most people this is not possible due to jobs and such (Unable to plan past your nose). I apologise for any hurt or inconvenience my outlandish and hurtful advice as done to you.

Good advice but not going to help much if the persons beside you have not been so dilligent and tests positive and your locked up for close contact monitoring

Thailand's MFA spokesman batting this directly back to Richard B and Pakhead in a tweet, the message, its a sacrifice you must make.

 

"I think risks that come with travel during these days are there where ever one goes around the world. But we all have to do our part. If I were found positive when arriving abroad, esp if I don't speak local language... (1/3)

 

....I'm sure I would hv a less than pleasant experience, vacation expectations altered (hypothetically). But after it all, I'd realize that understanding risks is the lesson of the day. Being + upon arrival in Thailand is not a sad humiliating story but rather of sacrifice and.. (2/3)

 

.. responsibility, as no one is more entitled than others. Thailand is one of the 1st to spearhead new normal travel. This is leadership that comes w/ responsibility for strict implementation as well as to constantly improve & address inefficiency where it arises. (3/3)"

expectations "altered"    Not the word i would use !

Noticed the closure time is getting less and less for cleaning a premises after positive case... Jus sayin.

Good, you can go with your disparaging remarks and find somewhere else to visit. I think they’re waiting for you in patong 

Says who! 

BTS!!!! 

List of the varients they can choose from ????

Wait until the long term effects of the vaccines start to appear !

mY BODY MY ChOIcE .....Vaccinated are exactly that ( apparently) vaccinated nothing to worry about .

So if you catch Covid from a vaccinated or non vaccinated person your protected whilst protecting freedom of choice!!

Hopefully there's a workaround they can keep my allocation for someone who wants it. I read the 2 deaths in Phuket today were both vaccinated / 1 with 1 jab /the other with 2. Visa's may well be an issue altho it is Thailand. 

Sucks big time when it looks like the bottom is looming so the new owners will be on the upside of the equation
