samtam Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Some of you may have already experienced this scenario - getting vaccinated and having it recorded in Mor Prom app and yellow vaccine passport etc. What happens when you get a new passport? Is it possible to change the Mor Prom app passport details and can one still use the existing yellow vaccine passport which shows the old passport number? Grateful to hear from anyone with this experience. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggy Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Although I haven’t experienced this, I guess the best solution would be to take the old documents to the MOPH and get a new yellow vaccine certificate, or go to the place of your vaccination and try to get a new paper certificate. Another way might be to carry your old passport with you, which would be the easiest solution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ71 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Why bother with Mor Prom app? What's the benifit? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treetops Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 You can change your passport number from within your profile on the Mor Phrom app, and also from within the International Certificate section where you can submit a pssport image too. Whether these flow through to the MOPH database I couldn't say. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows vaccination status and can be used in parts of Europe as well as in Thailand. It has a scannable QR Code which the yellow book does not. It is Mor Phrom records that are required in England to add Thai vaccines to the English system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, so basically only needed if you've been vaccinated in Thailand. Thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is odd, I didn't know that your passport number changes when you get a new one, mine, my wife's and our kids numbers never changed when we renewed them, so have to ask, why did yours, i.e. if it did ?

Kopitiam Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 OP, it doesn't matter. Thailand Pass shows only name, birthday and vaccine shots details. No passport number shown. My wife was in the same situation. Fully vaccinated in Thailand with old passport number. Got a new passport while out of Thailand. Got Thai Pass with no problem (applied with new passport number and vaccine certificate with old passport number). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked, thanks for asking, your right, they do change the numbers. Must have confused it with my recent debit card renewal, same number. Strange that they change the numbers, because bank cards and driver's licences stay the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregTN Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 On my USA passport the first stamp in it references the old passport number and the date it was changed so I would think that should be adequate proof. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMBob Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Back to the OP's question, I had the same issue - obtaining my first booster (Moderna) which was done under the then-existing passport (US) number, obtaining a new US passport, and then getting my second booster (again, Moderna) under the new passport number. When I got the second booster, I did tell them that I got a new passport in the interim but I have no idea how they dealt with that. Would note that (1) the Mor Prom app vaccination record shows both boosters without reference to any passport numbers and (2) I successfully applied for the International Certificate via the Mor Prom app and I'm supposed to be getting that within 3 days or so of the 29th of this month. I'd also note, for what it's worth, that my CDC (US) card reflects both the initial two Pfizer shots I got early last year and both booster shots (because I asked the nurses to write in the relevant booster info on lines 3 and 4 of my CDC card.

Andycoops Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 When I started my vaccine shots they used my Thai ID card number so there are no passport details. I guess if I decide to travel I'll have to get the yellow vaccine pass book or MoPH app and include my passport details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the app my Mor Prom "Covid 19 Vaccination-Records" box shows the record in Thai, and there is no passport number. My "International Certificate" box on the app shows my passport number. But, if as above, it is easy enough to change it, then it is not a problem. Not clear whether subsequent jabs and boosters can simply be added to the Yellow Vaccine Passport, even if the new passport number is different. (This used to be how it worked back in the day for all the vaccination records, when we needed them; the same yellow vaccine "passport" was just updated, whether the passport number had changed or not. Also added pages were just stapled in.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orac Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 (edited) I had new passport between 2nd and booster jab. Asked when i was getting booster and they updated my record to new passport number - morphrom app showed my new passport number the following day. Haven’t got intl/yellow cert so not sure how that works. Edited April 26, 2022 by Orac 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
