Phuket Sandbox - where to find rules?

One more question, if people know

 

I'm currently on a 1 year multi-entry visa with a work permit, and returning from the US.  Does the requirement of remaining in your country of departure for 21 days prior to flying still apply?  Was potentially going to go to Canada within that time frame prior to leaving from the US

 

Thanks!

Yes, the requirement of staying for 21 in approved countries is for everybody.

The general consensus is that you can travel between the approved countries but you have to confirm this with the Thai embassy where you apply the COE.

    I am in Phuket now via the Sandbox process.  You need to apply for a certificate of entry for the Phuket Sandbox model through a Thai Embassy or approved consulate (USA - LA, NYC, Chicago or Washingto

    Correctamundo...    PCR testing can be booked online at https://www.thailandpsas.com/SignIn You state your arrival date and can chose which testing centre you wish to take your PCR test

  • According to the thailandpsas website they PCR tests are refundable, if your COE gets rejected but also other reasons minus '5% refund fee'. The hotel reservations can still be fully flexible even whe

the requirement is staying for 21 days in approved countries, not in the country of departure. 

 

You may travel to any approved country (I think that Canada is) an continue travel to Thailand. 

 

Or even returning home some days before and travel to Thailand from there.

I am preparing my trip to Phuket at the moment. My trip should be around end of October, beginning of November.

I will be coming from Vietnam and most probably through Singapore.

I already few valuable answers in this thread but I have one more question:

I understand that as part of the requirements, you must book in advance and fully pay 3 Covid test that is part of the COE approval.

How do you do that? I mean where can you book?

Once you book your SHA + hotel, they will book PCR for you and will bill you 8000 bahts. 

 

Once you pay for them, hotel will send you certificate for COE.

That used to be the way things worked, these days PCR tests booking has to be done via another website, I think PSAS

Ah perfect then. 

My company is paying all my expenses for my trip. I need indeed to provide all the details as I will be chosing the accomodations, flights but they will pay directly on my behalf.

I'm now on my 3rd day of sandbox. 

May be it's different now, because regulations change daily here, but I did it that way.
