I entered no insurance as you

Did you just enter a passport number?  Or a Thai ID number as well?
is your address in Bangkok?
I put "Retired" in the Organization field, did you put an actual organization?
Just trying to see what other fields may have made a difference...  Thanks.

Same for me.

 

Did you scan later months?

 

At first I too thought there were no available dates, then noticed the bottom rows in June were a little bit brighter than greyed out dates!  Some might miss it.  First available was June 22, I chose the 23rd.  Didn't look at July.

 

 

Tried to register via the Intervac portal with a Chonburi address, "retired" as organization, received the 1970 date as well.  Went back in and revised by address to a Bangkok address, same result, no choice for hospital given when you click on the Check Eligibility button.  Changed my address back to Chonburi and will wait to see if there is any additional clarification in the future.  

 

I'm wondering if the folks who have successfully received an appointment via Intervac initially entered a Bangkok address.

 

In the meantime, over the weekend I booked a trip back to the US at the end of July to get vaccinated and to spend some time visiting family and friends.  I'm fortunate to have the means to do it, so time to just get it done.

The 3pm message has gone so gave it another go, no dates or times come up at all now, I got Jan 1st 1970 as well, wait for email from them. Sad that they are not only so xenophobic, but also so desperately hopeless.

Same here....but there was a footnote saying wait for an email.....

Passport.

Address in Bangkok.

I also put "Retired".

Typo NON-O visa.

 

How do they define 'Expat living in Thailand'? Having a work permit, or what else. What info is required when you register as proof of living here.?

Nope.....in Bangkok ...same result.

 If you travel outside the country ,countries you enter request  you show you have been vaccinated against CV 19.

Well at least Brits who need to renew their passports can then kill 2 birds with 1 stone in the case of BKK!????

No. I have an appointment at our local hospital in August, just 10km away.

Living as I do in the wilds of south Surin where noone I know knows anyone who has or has had the virus, and only one cousin has been vaccinated (company-organized in Buriram), I intend to protect my health and avoid crowds and raised blood pressure by doing nothing for at least 2 more months, possibly 3 or 4.

I had to manually choose the hospital assignment and the vaccine.

Go back and look for that. Can you do that?

 

I cannot see that option. I just get the status after registering this afternoon :

It's 3pm on 7 June. I just registered online at the site referenced above. Now I've got to wait until they send me an email back to assign an appointment date. We'll see how this goes. I'm not interested in the ones from China or Russia. Astra Zeneca would be fine for me.

Just tried again site crashed twice so did not get very far, keeps me busy anyway ????

I registered same, 2:30pm - wasnt offered an date/time in menu? said registerd ok?

 

went back in chk - now site not working for me?

 

just spinning??

I am one month away from 60, the possible vaccine date also.
still no go.

Tried the site. Entered all the info but it stuck on 'REGISTER' button at the end. Perhaps I should have ticked the 'health insurance' box?

I tried at 2.30pm "without insurance", it registered OK. Went back to edit to "with insurance". Made no difference. Got status below:

60 year olds should know how to catch a bus or train. 

Maybe in 50 years time you may be a sixty year old and wondering how to do that if you are disabled.

According to the US Embassy, this registration portal is only for expats in Bangkok and pattaya areas.
