I assume you were working if you got the card in 2012? I was here on an extension of stay based on marriage to a Thai. Built a house, obtained a yellow book and my pink non immigrant ID card. Worked outside of the country until I turned 50 and retired. Traveled back and forth with re-entry permits for my extensions.

shackleton Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I will believe it when it happens I still think they are talking about people who are working for Thai Companies Schools or have a Thai ID Seemingly Thai immigration count the expats who are retired here As guests hence the yearly visa not permanent residents 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggo Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Believe it when I see it as always the case, not only, but mainly in Thailand, yet if it means the Chinese or Russian concoctions , I'll pass, thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're not willing to do your part then you don't deserve to stay here. Which are you more afraid of? The vaccine, or dying miserably from Covid? Or do you think Covid is a hoax/conspiracy? what a load of rubbish.. some of use cannot have vaccines, are very ill after. as a kid spent a lot of time in Hospital after some vaccine.... 21 years ago tried the Flue yearly vaccine - very ill = still 21 years later suffer from the side effects.... last Sept tried part 1 of the Pneumonia vaccine, taken to Hospital in a coma.. after 4 nights Dr said it almost killed you Do Not take part 2............ My Dr said 2 months ago NO do not take the Covid vaccine For some it has nothing to do with refusing the vaccine.... Some of us also cannot take lots of different medications which are the norm for most people, it makes life hard and me as well as Drs must check on side effects of every medication 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should refrain from unsubstantiated comments. The mass vaccination programme has yet to start, merely the data collection phase. If vaccine desperation is your main focus then I am sure the nanny state will oblige, otherwise wait like the rest of us. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guderian Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I suspect by foreigners they really mean the millions of Burmese, Cambodian, Laotian, Vietnamese and Filipino workers living in Thailand who don't earn enough to be able to afford to get the vaccine privately but who represent a very real health threat to the Thais if they remain unvaccinated. Farang expats are a much smaller group than this and can afford to pay for the vaccines, at least if the government ever does more than simply saying fine things about allowing hospitals to sell them and actually lifts the restrictions currently in place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was allowed back in as an ex pat with non o retirement visa because I "reside in Thailand". It was clearly stated then, seems clear enough now. If you have a permanent residence here, you "reside" here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asiaexpat Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Yet to be seen how Non-Thai can register for vaccine. My experience testing the More Prom app shows that only those with a Thai ID, not Pink Card ID, can register. Maybe at hospital, but which hospital? Sounds more like "shut the complaints up" news to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyf Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 People should note the app is not a free for all. Hospitals throughout the nation have uploaded lists of senior citizens and patients with chronic illnesses into the Mor Prom system in preparation for registrations starting on May 1st. Older citizens will be asked to do so using the LINE application and will have to input their 13-digit identification number and their preferred vaccination time into the system, before selecting a preferred hospital or department store. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that. I think many expats seem to think the website should appear in their language, or they should receive special treatment, getting the vaccine delivered to them. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
