Mor Phrom, 13 digits and a booster - Pattaya


Recommended Posts

If this query is in the wrong thread list would a moderator please move it to the correct one.

I'll try to keep this really short.  Returned to UK in June, specifically for vaccines. Was loaded up with AZ after quarantine and then second dosed in August. Returned to Thailand in late November using the Thailand Pass system (which incidentally was incredibly easy). First stop was extension to retirement visa on 03rd December and then off down to the Chaiyapruek Indoor Stadium on 16th December where I duly went through all detail taking (including my UK inoculations, passport, driving license, etc etc) and received a Pfizer dose.  Who was administering this, or in charge, or responsible for it, I know not.

Problem starts here. I have to date, religiously followed all requirements of the Thai Government - Thai Chana, Mor Chana both running on my phone but I am unable to create an account with Mor Phrom due to the lack of a 13 digit number. Tried every combination including Thai Driving License and UK passport but I need that 13 digit number. I don't have a Pink Card, nor do I particularly want nor need one, nor I suspect would I receive much cooperation from my landlord in applying for one.  I was given no information at the vaccine centre, nor was my GF who steered me through this. In all fairness I don't think she asked TBH.

So I am now in the situation whereby I have full "vaccination" from the UK and a Thai Pfizer booster but am (1) unable to load anything up to Mor Phrom, (2) having to carry my UK paper "vaccination certificate" around with me and (3) probably most importantly, unable to prove that I have received a Pfizer Booster which, to any thinking man, is clearly going to be just as important as the other documents required to travel in a few months time.

I've tried phoning Mor Phrom helpline, 027922333 but it doesn't connect and apparently there are screeds of Thais who have written in to complain about the same.

I really want to get this lot out of the way, load up my two UK vaccines and my Thai booster on Mor Phrom and get on with things but I can't.

Has anyone else had such a problem and if so, what course of action did you take?

 

Thank you.

Does your certificate from the booster have a 13 digit number?

 

That's what most people are using and it links automagically to your MOPH records.

Try going back to the Chiyaphruk stadium with a Thai speaker along and asking where vaccination certificates (Yellow) are issued. That certificate has the 13 digit number.  Bring whatever documents you received there when you got the booster.

 

My situation was unlike yours.  I received both AZ doses at the Bang Sue vaccination center in Bangkok but failed to get the certificate at the time of my 2nd jab.  

I went back there last week and after some false turns, actually found the location with a nurse fluent in English and 10 minutes later walked out with my certificate.  The only documentation I had was my stamped appointment document.

Thanks chaps.  I neglected to mention that I received no paperwork at all in the stadium. That's the bit that surprised me.  I guess I need to go back with my passport when they are doing their next batch and retrospectively ask them to issue something with me.
