Popular Post SCOTT FITZGERSLD Posted January 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2022 13 days ago i sent the application. got a "registered" email immidiately. since than - no answer at all. my flight leaves tomorrow. no reply to my emails. no answer in their phone numbers. and as mentioned - no REPLY/ RESULT / RESPONSE at all. this is the WORST case scenario because i do not know where do i stand, what and if i did wrong, and how to continue - shall i try again and book another flight / hotel / insurance, or just forget about the whole thing for few months? giving NO ANSWER at all is THE WORST. it leaves me hanging in the air not knowing what to think. are they mad at me? at my country? don't they like my passport photo? my passport number? i can change it for them. just SAY SOMETHING !!! 10 1 4 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post timendres Posted January 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2022 The Thailand Pass was suspended.

bunnydrops Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Just being clear. You got registered, sent in the photos of your hotel booking, insurance etc. and then heard nothing? It took mine 10 days to get code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polar Bear Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Call your local Thai embassy/consulate. Some are more helpful than others, but if they are willing to get involved, they can get it resolved quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
federicoP Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Since at the 00.00 hrs of the 22nd of December (Thailand time) the new registrations for Thai Pass, except Phuket Sandbox and Alternative Quarantine, have been stopped, maybe some system trouble in the first days of the new rules could have affected your application ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HashBrownHarry Posted January 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2022 Thai Pass is NOT suspended, you can do quarantine in BKK for 7 / 10 / 14 days ( depending where you travel from ) if you don't want to do Phuket SandPit. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officially, yes, but in practice they are able to advocate for you if they are willing to do it. Although usually they won't even consider it until one or two days before you are due to travel. I know 2 people who got their TP this way and if you search this forum, you will find other examples.

(Which is how I found out about it in the first place.) TOO late for me because my flight leaves in 2 hours. thing is that this PASS is connected to many bookings. flight hotel ext. so i cannot change them according to their craze. that is why THE WORST thing they can do is GIVE NO ANSWER AT ALL. that is because they just waste people;s time until their flight is coming. they know when the date of my flight. why can't they say something even a say or two before the flight date? they just do not care. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cardinalblue Posted January 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2022 You didn’t allow lead time for delays…anyone other than business or family reasons to come to thailand during January and maybe even February is just not smart… let thailand figure out their policies and as the virus eases, hopeful less stringent policies materialize making it easier to handle entry requirements… set your sights on April and low season golf…. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is one (of many) article about it:https://www.tatnews.org/2021/12/thailand-pass-temporarily-suspended-those-received-qr-code-can-enter/ WRONG.... wrong, wrong.... The Thailand Pass has not been suspended at all - only the Test & Go (one night in a hotel) part has been suspended. Thailand Pass is still operational for Alternative Quarantine and Phuket Sandbox options. The issue faced by SCOTT FITZGERSLD is that he was unable to make payment for the PCR tests on the Phuket PSAS website - thus he attempted to submit his Thailand Pass for the Phuket Sandbox which was denied because he didn’t submit any proof of payment for the 2 PCR tests. He [SCOTT FITZGERSLD] unsuccessfully attempted to communicate with Thailand Pass (call them and e-mail them). Ultimately - there is no need to communicate with the Thailand Pass team as the problem is known. SCOTT FITZGERSLD needs to make payment for his PCR tests on the Phuket PSAS website, only then will he have a chance at a successful Thailand Pass application. IF he cannot find a way to make a successful payment on the Phuket PSAS website he may have to resort to using an agent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
