"Website seems to work for me, giving you three options"

Do you mean Test & Go, Blue Box and AQ?

That is what confuses me do I need a QR code for AQ?

Appreciate your help GinBoy2 - very confusing to me

Thanks for your help all, again I have no problem with the insurance or the PCR tests or even quarantine for a few days, I just don't know the process - @Dan o

I have researched the embassy site but the test and go site does not work for me on any device

I need a QR code to enter along with my insurance and PCR tests, the main thing I can't get is a QR code for the test and go plan

I will check - I have been through this many times and the sites for test and go do not appear to work though https://tp.consular.go.th/

Appreciate your feedback of course it could be something I am doing wrong

I am planning in the next couple of weeks to return to Thailand mainly to meet friends.

The information on the government sites changes week by week for example this site for the go pass does not appear to work https://tp.consular.go.th/

I am not vaccinated but would be happy to stay in ASQ for a couple of weeks not a problem and happy to to the PCR tests etc.

I would be traveling from the Philippines but I am a UK citizen.

I am just confused with all the info and how it is changing.

I think at the moment

i) I Need to get a PCR test 72 hours prior to travel

ii) Apply for a Test and Go QR which I can't because the website does not work

iii) Go into quarantine at an ASQ hotel in Bangkok which is fine with me and have PCR tests again on day 1 and 5

My plan is to stay much longer than the quarantine period so not too worried about that.

Any help is appreciated team.

Rules change in the Phil more than a Thai girls boyfriend so would double check all the forum advice here

Thais only use the word Bangkok when addressing foreigners who mostly don't understand the name they use.

What the *? Things are out of control now - those stupid foreigners won't understand our new name.

I am officially changing my name to Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and will explain to all my foreign friends it actually means John.

Yeah this is a harsh story, a dogs behaviour is generally (not in all cases) is a direct result of their upbringing and training, I'm guessing Titan 'attacking any one that came into the house' was meant as an attack dog rather than a pet.

No sympathy for the owner should suffer the consequences for his dogs actions, but I am suspecting a Wai will probably prevail as always.

As much as I love animals (and still feel sorry for the dog because not its fault its all it knew) the dog needs euthanised.

At last a voice of truth and reason from someone in authority! Very refreshing!

I want to come back to visit friends but can't be bothered with the bureaucracy currently required.

Doesn't seem like your average Escobar, El Chapo or that new Colombian dude that got caught yesterday, the sealing thing seems a bit weak I use that for my food! Maybe business is a little slow

Not enough info in the story to prove how he died,  post-mortem? Don't see any mention of that - as a previous poster said people die all the time just because he had been vaccinated without a PM how do we know - sure TV detectives will solve this case!

Thailand's minister for tourism and sports Pipat Ratchakitprakan said that he expects no less than five million foreign tourists to visit the country this year.

Very confused with this change of estimate as they expected 6 million British tourists alone to visit in 2021 in a report last week, can anyone give me the real low down? I want to come back there for a holiday but so many conflicting reports also around vaccine and testing

The survey, which had 4,127 respondents,

That's a big difference to the 60 million population - also if it was expats it is possible they may get 1 in 10 wanting to return (which is negative it should have been 60 million) - but 6 million based on that sample size - i would need to question that press release!

10% of the UK population plan to go to Thailand in 2021 and we were are already 2 months into the year - not sure about anyone else but it is possible these numbers are incorrect.

Thailand has to offer including getting married in the kingdom, Muay Thai (Thai boxing)

I thought this was the same thing?

And a periscope! I am guessing those cheap subs might need some 'Pimp my sub' stuff going on before they are operational, and obviously the right staff from the Island of Thailand to operate them, a little off-topic mod please don't remove, it sort of relates to why money is being spent on useless toys when most of the Thai news I see is how they are struggling in their economy because all 'their' foreigners have found a cheaper and more sensible place to hang out ???? nothing to see here, what is covid?

Good to see that yellow police tape 1 metre from the body preserving the crime scene and the inevitable mobile phone videos that will be circulated.  There will be approx. 1000 suspects after they lift footprints from that scene, but probably the burmese in any case! Solved

Edited by me: A cow will probably get the death sentence for this!

As I clicked refresh to see if there was a response 3/4 of the screen was taken up in advertising and a video appeared right over where I was going to start typing.  Then I had to scroll up because I had big banner advertisments at the bottom and popups at the bottom right of the screen.  All adding cookies to my machine so I can be targeted for more advertising.

Is it just me or is this annoying to anyone else?

Not sure if anyone else has noticed this the volume of advertising starting to appear on Tha visa forums.  When I am reading forums or news articles, between the popups and videos automatically playing I cant actually read the articles and just give up with the page.

Don't get me wrong I love Thai visa - but the level of advertising is making me less likely to use it, I understand sites do need a level of advertising for revenue but recently this one seems to have completely over done it, not even sure this post be allowed to stay on long enough to get a response ????

Who are the society of your own people to make their own minds up?

muppets

Agree with most of this - from my armchair warrior perspective 95% of the people I know have not created a succesful business in Thailand - I could be hanging around with the wrong people ????

But a brilliant post by Rooster I read this every week.
