Correct, unless, if I understand correctly, they own a condo then they can. There was an almighty row in the local Amphoe office, when I tried to register my father who came to stay with us, as I had been recorded in the blue book, the staff had to create a new blue book without me and then create a yellow book for me and my father.

Jingthing Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I saw this posted about yesterday with a suggestion that f-rangs just show up. I didn't show up because I could tell already that you could bet the house that showing up with a passport wasn't going to cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pagallim Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 In essence, local and registered Thais are the first priority, which will then be followed by local unregistered Thais, Expats with Work Permits, and finally Expats without Work Permits. At least, that's how it seemed to work in Phuket, though I doubt that there is a national 'model'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteBuffaloATM Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 no, implication that blue book possession alone will get you the yellow book is false; bb is just one of twenty or so documents needed for YB (worse case tessaban , except those who will refuse to issue YB).... comments should only be from those who actually have YB / ID.....getting silly now explaining.....

maechanman Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Walked past this registration place on the Beach Road earlier today, very little activity , the few Thais I saw registering were all young early 20's I would say. Thought they would prioritize older folks first but then again I suppose that's logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife went today to Pattaya Beach Road and registered with her KORAT ID-Card and photocopy of her tabien baan from there. She was not handed out any confirmation - but nobody got anything she says. At least they took all these papers and her telephone number and told her to look up the status in the Pattaya Prom application - which I was unable to find. If anybody knows what and where to download - we would be grateful to know. It could be that they did not read the adresses very well - but she handed in both tabien baan and ID-card....... Would they call if the registration had not been successful ? I doubt it, but she believes she is registered - gave all info, phone number etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) 56 minutes ago, Sheryl said: This. At least some foreigners have been gotten vaccinated in Pattaya. Yes. I think mostly done with legacy Mor Phrom registrations with pink cards and some people with specified jobs, perhaps connected, etc. Starting tomorrow as a current point in time, I know of NO METHOD whatsoever where a typical expat here can register for vaccine access in Pattaya, including very high risk ones. Do you? If so, many of us would love to know about it. What bothers me about albeit truthful statements that some expats in Pattaya have gotten jabs is that some people might get a false impression that access to vaccinations is widely available to expats here. It most certainly is not. Edited June 29, 2021 by Jingthing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy3000 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Suckers!! Get the f*** out of there. Catch a flight home, like me, get 2 Pfizer jabs for free and be safe. What happens in ( our beloved) Thailand re the vaccines is an unbelievable scam. Thais get jabs first, then the soi dogs. Now- who else has a Thai ID???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverman4969 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Many many Thais come to work in Pattaya, Saumi, and Phuket. They keep their regerestered address on the farm in dad's house book because he said so. No thought for the future. They also have to go back home to get the government medical because that's the Thai law. Same with the ID card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She lives in Laem Chabang, but is registered in the house book in her home town of Lom Sak in Petchabun. It seems the authorities in Laem Chabang are being more sensible about things than they are in Pattaya. Now why doesn't that surprise me, sigh. Maybe more industry and Japanese people in Laem Chabang??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cauldlad Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 My Thai wife and her Thai friend went to register at a place in Soi 6 yesterday. They wanted photocopies of the two pages of her blue book and a copy of her ID card. They told her they have to check that people are registered in the Pattaya area. She asked about me, her farang husband registering and was told Thais first!! They are obviously following the local Pattaya policy, it would seem. I was not interested in registering there anyway as I am already registered at a private hospital, but it just shows you the attitude they have towards farangs, at least here in Pattaya.

Guderian Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 13 hours ago, MrJ2U said: Good idea to book Moderna that will be available in October. That's the optimistic view. BHP refuses to commit itself to "October" and will only say that the vaccines SHOULD be available in the fourth quarter. I called them yesterday and they said they won't be taking any names or money tomorrow, they want to wait until the GPO confirms how many doses of Moderna they will receive. It seems a more honest and ethical approach than the hospitals taking money for vaccines they may never receive, though for people who are desperate to receive a vaccine, like many of us, it's not a very satisfying message. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
