oliverphoenix2 Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I received pre approval for phuket sandbox on Fri 2 July and submitted requested docs at 9.30pm uk time. I just checked my status on the mfa webpage (approved) on Sun 4 July 8pm and printed my coe. My flight is on 16 July; with legitimate coe (and all the other necessary papers) could Phuket immigration possibly deny entry due to UK high risk status?

ubonjoe Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 The could deny entry but I doubt it. You need to check with embassy about it since the are the only ones that can help you with the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJack54 Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 OP, you may might keep an eye on the situation in reverse. Labor Party for example urging borders with Thailand to be closed. Reported in Taiger and other news sources. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluezircon Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 I'm in a similar situation as OP except my COE hasn't been approved yet. From what I can tell when ASQ went from 7 days back to 14 days the people who got their COE approved for 7 days quick enough were fine. So hopefully you'll be fine for sandbox.

natway09 Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Any Immigration Officer has the right to deny entry into any country for reasons that can be mysterious sometimes, but as long as your paperwork is correct (Note :at the time of arrival) you should be OK. Just keep abreast of the immediate situation until boarding 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinok Powell Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) Please let us know how you get on because there are plenty of people in the UK now either in the process or about to apply for the COE and have been sent into panic mode because of the Red List News,cheers KP. Good luck. Edited July 5, 2021 by Kinok Powell Spellin mystake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it was not saying borders should be closed, just suggesting Thailand should be added to the UK Red list. Since then there has been a further UK review and Thailand stayed Amber.

Anything possible in even near future. Hospital beds reaching capacity. 6000k+ cases per day. Delta soon to #1 with a bullet. Frankly folk are crazy to be coming for holiday. If coming back to live here different story. Edited July 5, 2021 by DrJack54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
