MOPH: Drinking alcohol increases risk of contracting COVID
JRG23 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Love it. Always trust a Thai government official for some comedy gold. -
I've worked in BKK for about 20 years - I can assure you the experience in this city is not the same!!

I came back to Thailand on Monday using Thailand Pass. They do accept test result using mobile phone. But it slows up the whole process. People were waiting in the back of the line holding their phones up showing the results, while the people with printouts (including me) just walked through because the immigration staff had already given the all clear. That's all. You can use your phone - but it is very slow.

New Thai education law will kill kids’ creativity, warn critics
JRG23 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Creativity, innovation, and aptitude are not the objective of the Thai education system. There is only one goal: to train subservience. Those who arise above this are rare. -
Thailand Pass Is Up And Running

Apply for AQ. I did this morning and got the QR for AQ immediately. Then a short while after received Test and Go QR too. -

Success! Finally received Test and Go approval QR code. I am so relieved! This morning (8 Nov) I applied for AQ approval after many unsuccessful attempts at Test and Go (since 1 Nov). AQ approval and QR code arrived in my email almost straight away. Less than three minutes. Then, just 10 mins after QA approval QR code I received the Test and Go QR code. So now have two QR codes (I fly on 13 Nov). So I would say to anyone worried about applying for AQ, go ahead and do it! Looks like it kicks the process of getting Test and Go approval too! Cheers. -

Think this is the idea, yes. If you can evidence vaccine x 2 (and can evidence all other test-and-go requirements) then why would they not allow 1-day test and go on arrival? Makes no sense. -

So I have just applied for AQ through the Thailand Pass system. I made three approval requests for Test and Go from 1 November. But no QR code. However, through the AQ route I received QR code immediately. This has got to be some glitch in the system. Anyway, now I am worried that my full docs won't be accepted. Are there reports of people getting through the system with the AQ? Would appreciate any thoughts. Cheers -

Does this really work? I see Thai authorities are recommending not to do this. But are people entering Thailand successfully (and not having to do 10 days quaratine when they have the right docs)? Thanks -

I’m due to fly back to Thailand on the 13th (entering on 14th). No QR code. I applied on 2 November with all required documents. I work in Thailand with Digital Work Permit. BOI company, which is partnered with a UK investment firm. And I need to be back for work. When should I start panicking? What options do I have in pursuing them for approval? Would appreciate any thoughts. Thanks J -

On Chrome install this extension - Allow CORS: Access-Control-Allow-Origin Reload Chrome and make sure the extension is on (sometimes it's turned off automatically) Input your data. Make sure to leave gaps before or after your passport number and also the insurance number. If you have previously been unsuccessful, try to use another email address. This is what I tried and it worked (after about 100 unsuccessful attempts). -

After probably 100 efforts yesterday I finally got passed the API error message this morning! I did three things different to yesterday. 1. Used Allow CORS extension 2. Put spaces in passport number 3. Used a different email address. Good luck to others. -

After more than 30 tries since 9am Thailand time, I have received a message different to the error API message. Now it says "passport number has already been used" !!!! But nothing more!!! Goodness, I hope someone with some competency sorts this out quick. -

Did you re-do the whole form 50 times or just keep re-loading the insurance doc and then re-submit? -

That's a computer setting. Not the website. -
