RickNew Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Has anyone returned to Phuket since they open bridge? What was required to enter Phuket? I read about the new app “phuketpolice.org”, but when i download it, it’s all in Thai. Any current information regarding Sarasin Bridge crossing appreciated!

Mavideol Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 it appears they still require quarantine depending on the province you are coming from 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some process to enter Phuket island. Not clear yet how the quarantine is enforced. Maybe the tracking SIM talked about before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve2112 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 looks like you still have to book a date and time on their app and get a QR code to enter https://www.thephuketnews.com/fit-to-travel-no-longer-needed-to-enter-leave-phuket-by-road-76256.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickNew Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 This App is all in Thai, question 3 asks for “card number” (in Thai) and any card/passport I enter it returns error message, “card not found”. I was really hoping to find someone who completed the Sarasin Bridge crossing today to share first hand information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psimbo Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Just spoke with someone who came back onto the island this morning. You drive in, park up and wait your turn in well spaced chairs. Show paper or QR on phone, along with ID (Thais ID card, Foreigners passport), then you are cleared and back to your vehicle, She pre-registered yesterday. Said it was hassle free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damaz6052 Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Friends came back from Thai Muang yesterday. They used the app that's mentioned in a previous post. I was hoping to leave tomorrow for the day but have been unsuccessful in getting the QR code after filling in the required info. Anyone else had success in getting the QR code?

RickNew Posted June 6, 2020 Author Share Posted June 6, 2020 I came across the bridge today, I preregisted with the gophuket app and had my QR code ready, I also registered with the Thai Chana app. When I arrived at the checkpoint, the officer just waived me through, no questions, not temperature check, no scanning the QR code, just a simple hand gesture to go on through. That said, I did see 10 to 15 civilians off to the side of the building doing something. I did not stop and ask what they were doing. So maybe the stops are random and I just got lucky today?? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agusts Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Has anyone else recently gone out or back in Phuket via bridge...!? Are they just waving you through now like our friend mentioned above...! Or still need registration and all that malarkey... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Agusts Posted June 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2020 Just to answer my own question, my friend went to the police station checkpoint just before going out of Phuket and over the bridge, he asked the policeman there if any registration is needed to exit or enter, firm reply "no need". He also observed all traffic coming and going as normal, like before covid times, police officers just looking in but not stopping anyone at all... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
