I have the 13 digit code too and waiting couple months for a Vax date but I registered on this newest system that is for “first shot only”!

I’ll make by decision with whoever calls me first!

 

Me too, enlisted in 2 different ones, waiting, so far nothing. Nothing is really , not blaming anyone, well organized. In this latest one there is a possibility to register as PR, BUT there is no allocated space for Th ID card number, only Passport ????? Maybe something that our friends following FB could / should point out.....

were you using a @isp.co.xx type email address? where xx is the country code?

 

I tried with mine and it didn't accept it, I suspect it would only recognise a .com email address.

No issue with my .uk email.

I registered as PR on this expatvac site and put in my passport number. Incidentially, my passport is brand-new and the number is not in the Thai immigration system. I have also registered at two other vaccination sites, using only my Thai ID number.

Interesting I'm also a PR and have a brand new passport.  The first time I tried to register there was no drop-down menu for permanent residents.   Luckily they added it a few hours later.  So just like you I'm not on any Thai system with my new passport.  I guess if they're checking their system my name should show up properly with the correct date of birth.

I don't think you will lose your current position in the queue.  I would advise trying to register at the https://expatvac.consular.go.th site and see what happens.  I don't think you have anything to lose and much to gain.  Many people are registered at multiple places for the vaccination.  I haven't heard of any problems with doing that.

I assume if in Hua Hin going to Bangkok is not desirable so would forgo registering at the MedPark site, but if registered at the site given above potentially they will make the vaccine available to you in your home province.  Go for it!

Thank you!

This "newest system" is not just for "first shot only".  That wording is to indicate that the sign-up is only for individuals who have not already had a first injection.... it is not for individuals seeking a second injection to go along with their first.  The Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the Kingdom of Thailand is the agency operating the sign-up and there is a quite clear explanation of the particulars on their Facebook page.  And, on that FB page it is stated that both injections will be Pfizer.

From the Canadian Embassy last night, 

 

Hint:  you will be required to upload a photo of your passport page and visa.  To do so, highlight all documents and then drag them to the appropriate space on the form, as you cannot upload documents one at a time

Was that in the letter or did you add it in?

That was in the letter, a lot more and in French also, that I didn't post. It's quite long

[robert888d]

I just tried. First question was fill in your email. I put in my correct email about a dozen times and it kept saying in red this is not a valid email. So absolutely useless. Say no more

When you get the error message try hitting the refresh button.

Yes, but that's because of a bug in the application, nothing invalid about the address.  When that happens try hitting the refresh button.

Yes, under 60

 

She finally got a registration confirmation although the form would not accept her data as being valid.

so now what? lets the waiting game began or maybe by next year or maybe never

Your data will be evaluated against the current priorities, age 60 or over, having one of the qualifying medical condition, and people will start getting appointments based on the availability of the vaccines.

I've heard reports from people who have been given Pfizer appointments (including the MedPark Hospital site) that Pfizer appointments won't be available until then (or maybe 10 August).  I guess it's possible to get AZ or Sinovac appointments before then.  All subject to availability.

Yes, Medpark Pfizer appointments started on August 10 but when I went on the site ( Sunday evening ) the first vacant slots were for evening of August 11.

They may have an email you used to have at one time and your email now doesn’t match!!

Give up if you want but the whole procedure only takes five minutes!

Before you start make sure you have a photo of your passport and visa ready to download and download both at the same time!

I have the nagging feeling I may have downloaded a photo of my Retirement visa “but perhaps not the photo of my passport”!

 

I don’t want to miss this opportunity because of a possible oversight…is there any way to check

OR what would be the ramifications if I reapplied??

[Pedrogaz]

This is not good news. I just praised the MoF for the first decent website and now they will transfer me to the new website. What can possibly go wrong????

Same here, I reapplied.

It's funny (but of course not surprising after 20+ years) that there are still all these: this is for group A, not including group B, but only if you have qualification C rules for getting vaccinated.   My dual citizen kids can't sign up as foreigners because of course they don't have any kind of visa status nor do they work.   They're "ready" to go via Morphrom though (there is now a push in social media for kids to start getting queued up).... no dates at all set though.  Just 'in' the system now.  

 

Surely *only ID required* should be enough considering the circumstances.
