  1. Not true. I was asked if I wanted to transfer in Baht or Sterling. It is not cash you are sending as it is an electronic transfer. It is only a question of when you have your currency converted into Sterling. If you transfer ฿ it will not arrive in your account as ฿ as it will be automaticaly converted into Sterling.
  2. I sent mine in Pounds Sterling as the Bangkok Bank has a better exchange rate than my UK bank. When I send money to Thailand from the UK I also send it in Sterling.
  3. I recently transfered ฿800 000 which was 18.200 pounds worth of baht back to the UK from my Bangkok Bank account. Just go into your bank and tell them you want to make an international transfer to your UK bank account . You will have to fill out a form and your money will be in your account within a few days. You will need your passport and your UK bank account IBAN number and Swift code.
  4. Q suites is not a sealed private room it is just a seat with a sliding door to give you a bit of privacy. You are in the plane with everyone else. I flew last year and paid silly money for Q suites.
  5. Thailand consider you are recovered 14 days after infection and that is the day you test positive. Your recovery certificate states you have recovered and you have recovered 14 days after infection ,hence a recovery certificate is issued. I am at a loss to what you are talking about.
  6. My policy covers asymptomatic. After Thailand first lockdown the only policies available that would allow you in had to be. That is why my policy was very expensive. As far as Royal vacation are concerned they are a very over priced travel agent. I know from experience as last October did Phuket Sandbox with them.
  7. As long as your infection was more than 14 days before you enter then your Covid Recovery Certificate is valid. This is because the certificate verifies when you tested positive and when you were deemed to have recovered. If it is more than 14 days It is not a short dated certificate.
  8. Recovered not less than 14 days is the same as not infected by 14 days. It just means that you have to have tested positive at least 14 days before you go to Thailand.
  9. Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs - if a person who has recovered from COVID-19 within 3 months before entering Thailand Must submit a medical certificate certifying recovered within 3 months but not less than 14 days prior to travel. or have no symptoms to accompany a positive RT-PCR test result.
  10. On the London site it states the following- If you have recovered from being infected from COVID-19 and the RT-PCR test before travelling is still positive, travellers must have a medical certificate stating that you have recovered from COVID-19 (infected more than 14 days but not more than 3 months). My recovery certificate was issued after 11 days .
  11. Why has it got to be issued a minimum 14 days before entry? A Covid Recovery Certificate has to be issued 14 days after a positive test. If your certificate is issued 14 days after a positive test then you can enter on the following day.
  12. I have a Covid Recovery Certificate and will see how it is received when I came back on 25th April. I am hoping it will not be a problem as on the Thailand Pass application site it states it can be used.
  13. I live in Thailand and have just been visiting my Mother in the UK so will be returning as planned. I speak Thai and always converse in Thai when in Thailand so not worried about anything being lost in translation. I am just interested if anyone else has used a Covid Recovery Certificate. I have Insurance that is purely a Covid-19 insurance but if I am recovered from Covid do not want to or expect to have to use it.
  14. TIP INSURE and it is a 12 month policy. Co-Insurance Panel 1. Dhipaya Insurance Plc. 5. The Viriyah Insurance Plc. 9. The Falcon Insurance Plc. 13. Chubb Samaggi Insurance Plc. 2. Bangkok Insurance Plc. 6. Syn Mun Kong Insurance Plc. 10. The Navakij Insurance Plc. 14. Bangkok Life Assurance Plc. 3. Pacific Cross Health Insurance Plc. 7. Southeast Insurance Plc. 11. Thaivivat Insurance Plc. 15. Ocean Life Insurance Plc. 4. Muang Thai Insurance Plc. 8. Asia Insurance 1950 Plc. 12. Mittare Insurance Plc. 16. Muang Thai Life Assurance Plc. My policy was issued by Dhipaya Insurance Plc on behalf of the Co- Insurance panel.
  15. I have travelled several times over the last 2 years qnd I have fully comprenensive Covid-19 insurance which covers me for asymptomatic aswell. It was ฿ 23.500 for 1 year. The first year I had it it was closer to ฿26.000
  16. Thd whole point of a Covid Recovery Certificate is that if your RT-PCR test comes back positive you do not have to quarantene as it is possible to still return a positive test within a 90 day period of having covid.
  17. I have had my Thai Pass issued and had covid a couple of weeks ago. I have had a Covid Recovery Certificate issued by a doctor and wonder what happens when I arrive at the hotel. Do I give them the recovery certificate at the time of the pcr test? I wonder how they react to a recovery certificate and then maybe testing positive due to the fact you are advised not to take a pcr test within 90 days of being positive due to remenants of the old infection still being detectable.

  19. The following is on KLM website. I have booked a Sha plus hotel for the first night and had my Thai Pass issued. My next 4 nights are at August Suites and am now wondering whether this is OK. Entry Permission: Passengers who have registered for the 'Test and Go' programme must hold the following documents: A vaccination certificate proving the passenger is fully vaccinated against Covid-19. Passengers must hold proof of having pre-booked and paid for an RT-PCR test on day 1 and an antigen test (self-test) on day 5 after arrival and must stay in pre-arranged accommodation while awaiting their result, under the 'Exemption from Quarantine (EQ)' scheme. They must hold proof of having pre-booked and paid for a hotel room on day 1 and day 5 after arrival. These hotels may be different but must be certified under SHA++, AQQ, or AHQ. Passengers must stay in their booked accommodation until receiving the test results within one day. Passengers who receive a negative result from their day 1 test may leave their accommodation until their day 5 test. Passengers who receive a positive result will be referred to a healthcare facility for medical treatment at their own expense. Passengers must have completed the vaccination with a vaccine approved by Thailand’s Ministry of Public Health or the World Health Organization (WHO) at least 14 days prior to departure.
  20. Is that my responsibility? For 2 years now all we have heard is whinge ,whinge ,whinge! Dont like it dont come. Simple.
  21. The moaners will always moan. If they win the lottery they wil complain 555. It is far easier now to re enter than it was 2 years ago. Maybe the moaners need a dog with their slippers and a newspaper in its mouth waiting for them <deleted>.
  22. When I came back to Thailand last October I had to have the Mor Chana app on my phone/tablet. I am back to Thailand on 25th April and wondered if I still will need one of these apps on arrival ?
