Travelling to the UK on Monday!

[danny42]

I'm travelling to the UK on Monday (vis Dubai).

I've had two Phizer jabs (the second one was 16 days ago). I have a certificate on my phone from Mor Phrom, giving all the details of my jabs. Thailand is now not on the Red List.

Do I need to do a PCR test before I go? (Don't think I do!)

Do I need to complete a Locator Form before leaving Thailand?

Do I need to do any tests on arriving in the UK?

Do we still need to complete a COE (Certificate of Entry) form while in the UK and submit it to the Thai Embassy in London?

No days quarantine on arrival back in Thailand!!!! (14...........7.............0.............?)

Need to visit the UK, but it's going to be quite an adventure!

I hope to travel via Dubai shortly with Emirates and I am following information from these sites:

 

 

 

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/countries-with-approved-covid-19-vaccination-programmes-and-proof-of-vaccination

 

 

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/travel-to-england-from-another-country-during-coronavirus-covid-19

https://www.emirates.com/th/english/help/covid-19/dubai-travel-requirements/tourists/

 

The one answer I can't get a solid reply to is the Covid-19 vaccine document that is acceptable to both Emirates and UK immigration.  Emirates do not require Covid PCR test if you have a vaccine 'passport' and are travelling to the UK.

If you go back to the link, look under the heading ‘OVERVIEW’ there are links to each UK nation.

 

Select the nation you plan to travel to and you will be taken to the very latest information (all recently updated).

Vaccine wise I'm taking a printed copy (mor phrom), one on my phone and the App based one!

Which test do we need on arrival? Is it a day 2 test?

Are you completing a Locator Form (48 hrs before arrival)?

Thats how I read it as well, those exact 3 things required

Take into consideration that you will have to go through immigration in Bangkok if you are flying in from elsewhere and so leave enough time (four hours ?) to collect your bags and check-in then getting stamped out .

Too late now, but it might have been helpful to get this before leaving from Thailand.

My colleague arrived at Heathrow from Malaysia via Abu Dhabi two days ago. He was through immigration in about 5 minutes. Concerned that he had not been asked for any documents or forms or evidence of the vaccinations he'd had in Malaysia, he asked an official where he should present them. He was waved through without showing anything other than his passport at the egate.

Excellent.

I am not sure exactly about UK, but many european countries require proof of vaccination when one wants to take a train, a plane, visit a museum, dine indoors... then it might help the OP to have his vaccinations recognized.
