Need to Apply for New Thailand Pass if Everything Changes?

[Jaymatheson]

Hi,

 

Embassy slower than expected to process STV so can't follow original plan.

 

Flights and Test & Go hotel date will have to be changed.  Insurance policy will either be switched to a yet to be determined date or cancelled and changed to a totally new policy if Embassy decides to only give me a SETV.

 

Do I need to apply for a new Thailand Pass or will the one I have let me into the country no matter what info (dates, flight number, insurance, hotel booking) has changed from the original application?

You will have to apply for a new Thailand Pass unless your arrival date changes by less than 72 hours.

Oh, does applying for a new Thailand Pass get any faster after you've been approved in the past or is it still completely random?

 

Thanks for the help

I think it will be the same as the first one.

So how exactly does the 72 hours work?

 

For example, if you were initially supposed to fly into Thailand on Jan. 10th at 1pm, you would be permitted to enter any day / anytime before 11:59 pm on Jan. 13th?

(assuming I'm not interested in arriving before the 10th)
