Fairynuff Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I got my application in just a few hours before the deadline. I started to wonder what would happen if they just decided not to process any of the latest applications and just allowed the existing ones. so my questions are, if you were declined, what went wrong and what did you do? if you’ve applied but not yet got your QR code what’s your plan? would you go for another option like Sandbox? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCOTT FITZGERSLD Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 MY application was rejected today because of NO RECEIPT FOR PCR test . i understand that not i will have to go threw the whole process again, because there is no way on their web site to update an rejected application. so only question now: HOW DO I PAY FOR THIS PCT TEST? tried to log in to their web site, cannot. i am sure no one will reply my email, and my flight is coming early next month. another question is: what happans in case that my flight will be cancelled / changed? will i get a refund for this PCR test payment?

internationalism Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) to correct your paperwork reply to email with correct info, attach files. They do process fast. Yes, for phuket sandbox pcr test (and from 22.12 2 pcr are needed) have to be payed. my application for T&G placed hours before dead line was processed within 20h, I have pass. It was not complete, because I hadn't got proper hotel booking (I had only an outdated one). That was the fasted from the 3 previous ones (one over 24h, two others 5 days). So they are working and are not fussy. They have 7 days to process application. If rejected you can wait till 4th january for opening (there might be delay), but if need fast do sandbox.

Don Chance Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I read that Omnicron will incubate in 3 days. So there only needs to be a 3 day quarantine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puccini Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) Did the Thailand Pass requirements not include the upload of a confirmed and paid hotel reservation including transportation from the airport to the hotel and PCR test?

Puccini Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Recently, I assisted a Thai national with the Thailand Pass registration, but that was for the Test & Go scheme, not the Phuket Sandbox.

WHAT A MESS !!!!! Normally the Thai Pass asked for the SHA plus approved hotel/ SHA Taxi to hotel/ and PCR test.Your choice of SHA hôtel should mention the details included. Mine was all included.That’s probably what went wrong for you. So you’ve been rejected, you cannot apply again for Test and Go, as it has been suspended since Tuesday night, and only accepting new applications for the Thai Pass through Phuket Sandbox program, or full quarantine package in Bangkok. Apparently your flight must not go through Bangkok airport.Check that. There are different conditions for Phuket Sandbox so read thoroughly, also 2 PCR tests instead of 1 , plus the PCR before you leave home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PROBLEM is that the web site for the payment on line of the PCR test does not work properly. my hotel confirmed that that website, www.thailandpsas.com IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY but the hotel cannot complete the payment for me. so prectically there is no way now to apply for thailand pass in phuket sandbox, and they will not even let you know about it in advance, only after you send your application you will be notified that "Thailand Pass system has rejected your registration due to Please upload an RT-PCR receipt for your swab test at Phuket International Airport.

internationalism Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) if problem with payment, change browser, try from the PC, tablet, smartphone.

As I understand, the letter from the one-day ASQ hotel didn't show you had paid for the PCR-test. Said letter should have shown 1) hotel night paid 2) shuttle from airport to hotel paid 3) first PCR paid. If you flight is changed I think the TP FAQ said it is ok provided the shift is less than 72 hours. P.S. The PCR they want paid already is, of course, the one you take upon arrival in Thailand, NOT the one you take just before boarding.
