Phuket sandbox now only 7 days.

Then the poster needs insurance coverage for that period.

I'm on Samui right now.

I wish I knew this before buying my ticket with Qatar airways. https://www.emirates.com/th/english/before-you-fly/multi-risk-travel-insurance/

Think the problem is that you must have covid insurance for your total stay. I bought a refundable ticket to Singapore after 14days

That's why I bought my refundable ticket to Singapore after 14days

Up to 365days https://www.emirates.com/th/english/before-you-fly/multi-risk-travel-insurance/

In another thread I read that if you fly with Emirates they'll include insurance asked for the COE for your entire stay or 31 days if on a one way ticket. I wish I knew this before flying in. Basically you buy return after 365 days and you're covered a full year. https://www.emirates.com/th/english/before-you-fly/multi-risk-travel-insurance/

Stockholm embassy was ok with my 14days insurance.

PCR test #1 Phuket: result back in 3h PCR test #2 Phuket: result back in 3h PCR test #3 samui: result not back yet 23h later. They say 24-48h.

Perhaps, apply for the COE. They will not deny you but ask for the ticket. I think my problem was that I applied for the COE before I got my B-visa.

In Phuket, bars-girls-fun. Samui, backyard of my friends. If you don't have friends on Samui expect foodpanda and hotel room.

I lived on Koh Samui 14 years. I would not recommend you coming here unless necessary,go to Phuket. If you need a SHABA hotel, First Residence in South Chaweng is 700 baht on Agoda.

8000 baht. For my COE application phuket sandbox there's no option than using this site as you need receipt for all three tests when applying for the COE. https://www.thailandpsas.com/

They didn't ask me for proof where I have been at the Stockholm embassy. I did however apply for the the COE before I got my B-visa so perhaps that's why they demanded return ticket. The Stockholm embassy will issue an e-visa if you need it. No need to travel to the embassy. https://thaievisa.go.th/

B-visa from the Stockholm embassy

Yes. Not directly from your homecounty. You must fly directly into Phuket, can't transfer in Bangkok

Had bussines visa. Still needed ticket out.

I bought 14 days insurance with covid covered. You need it for your COE My insurance cost 3400 baht

You're not the only one that tried 3times. Also no explanation when applying went wrong. And no support.

The Lantern, soi sansabai. Crawling distance from soi Bangla.

It was perfect. One empty seat between all passengers. Great legroom. I have pretty long legs and I had to best legroom ever in coach. No worries in Doha, every other seat in waiting areas was sealed off

Yes. My first seven days I stayed in Phuket instead. 650 baht/night for my 4 star hotel.
