If it worked you will receive an email, mine only took about one hour to receive on Sunday. If you don’t get an acknowledgement then reapply...but you may need another email address. A hint if you do try again....select both photos and drag and drop both at same time, it won’t let you add files one by one.

I got the confirmation back in an hour or so as below:

 

**Your registration for the FIRST dose of COVID-19 vaccination is successful.
Once available appointment slot is sent to your email, please confirm within 24 hours.

Try applying again….as soon as you put your email address in you’ll know if that’s possible!

Can’t hurt

Medpark Hospital is for over 60s only or underlying conditions, etc.  ????

 

[Registration for government allocated free vaccine] for expatriates residing in Thailand who meet these 2 conditions - (1) have not received any COVID-19 vaccine and (2) are over the age of 60 / have underlying disease(s) / are over 12 weeks pregnant.

All foreigners in all provinces will get Pfizer including second doses. However, we’ve transferred those registered previously w/ MFA to Expatvac. Some may be directed to Bang Sue Grand Station and will get AstraZeneca-AztraZeneca. Administration of vac will be managed by MOPH.

Not sure i understand this statement:

”All foreigners in all provinces will get Pfizer…….”  followed by 

” Some may be directed to Bang Sue Grand Station and will get Astra Zeneca ….. “

 

What am I missing ??

My understanding is...

 

"However, we’ve transferred those registered previously with MFA to Expatvac, some may be directed to Bang Sue Grand Station and will get AstraZeneca-AztraZeneca."

I was the other way

Successful application notice but “I think” I may have only showed visa and not passport!

no way to check and can’t reapply as won’t accept my email address.

Once again they’re trying to “get this done”….so I think we’ll get our appt. date…make sure to have all docs. with you when you go of course!

I registered after waiting a couple of days and I almost immediately  received an Email that my registration was successful!

 

Now lets wait and see and I am now registered at 3 different places (Local Hospital, Private Hospital and ExpatVac)

Probably need to use another email... but may still be blocked based on passport number being logged. How about registering at BHP?

[MJCM]

Questions for those foreigners that live in Isarn and that registered on ExpatVac.

 

Suppose the appointment comes via Email and the location is set to Bangkok / Bang Sue.

 

Would you go?

I've just received an appointment from BCCT to appear at Bangrak vaccination centre, Bangkok on Friday morning 0930-1030hrs. I don't even think that buses are running, and I don't fancy paying mega bucks for a taxi.

Having already successfully registered at expatvac consular, I've emailed them and explained the situation, asking if there's any likelihood of local jabs in the near future. I'll repost when I get a reply.

Same here, I reapplied.

Did you re-apply with just one photo again?. I have re-applied several times in the end I just submitted front page of passport. Also my phone number had the +66 to many numbers so took that off and put the 0 back. I have now 'successfully' applied according to the site or have I  as only one photo. ????

Yes, but managed to get both scans into the frame by holding down Ctrl button and dragging both at the same time.

Can’t re apply as they have my email address AND my passport number and as soon as I enter email it shows I have already applied on their end which is actually the way it should work!

I believe I’ll be ok as they now have my retirement visa photo and my PP #!

Apparently, the MFA are handling the registrations and the MOPH are handling the actual vaccinations. This would suggest registrations need to be completed before an appointment if offered.

 

I think it more likely, the MFA will request the missing information prior to the appointment. Whether or not this delays registrations that are "pending", I don't know.

I think they called all outside Bangkok as "provinces " as Bangkok is  capital town ,i guess there lies the different approach , probably for bang sue all already in position and organized  .

I cannot give you an exact date MOPH or a vaccine center will email you. I Some foreign residents will be called by Bang Sue later this week. The Pfizer vaccines will NOT be available before August 10 or 11. MOPH is undergoing testing and regular preparation process.

Confusing. Who gets redirected to Bang Sue? And does everyone who gets redirected get AZ? Or Pfizer? And where else is Expatvac administering Pfizer in Bangkok? And are any hospitals giving Pfizer?

MOPH’s will direct those registered to the nearest places of vac incld the provinces. Bang Sue’s one of vac centers for BKK and near by provinces. Vac type’s subject to availability. We still have AstraZeneca at Bang Sue now. I expect MOPH to start using Pfizer after Aug 10.

[mommysboy]

Having just registered I wondered if anybody knows where I can get a splint for my index finger.

[PMEL]

I registered on August 2nd.  Received a "Your registration for the FIRST dose of COVID-19 vaccination is successful"  email notification immediately after.  My question is has anyone actually received a follow up registration notice to get that first jab? If not does anyone know when that process will start?
