Making the move on March 23rd with the wife and two dogs, looking forward to starting the second half of my life with a new home in Sam Roi Yod.

Reno to Seattle on Alaska Air then Korean Air to Bangkok. Got everything that far figured out with the dogs. Where I get a little sketchy is what happens in Bangkok. I will have all the necessary paperwork ( 20 copies of everything just in case) shot records , letters of health even a letter from the Vet stating that in his opinion quarantine is not necessary or can be performed i safely in primary residence (someone suggested that, figured can't hurt).

Would love it if someone who went through the process could fill me in. My plane lands at 23:00 hours so it's a awkward time (I guess).

Looking forward to your input, thanks in advance!

Seems like you are off to a good start.

We did the same thing.......... 2 Dogs from San Francisco to Bangkok.

I did an overkill on the paperwork. A copy of each document for myself, one for Vet/Health Authority at the airport, one copy EACH in a plastic

folder attached to the top of each kennel.

When the officer asks where the dogs will be quarantined,,,,,,,,,,, reply: At my home.

Double check the paperwork requirements on the website for Thai Health,,,,, to make certain that you have everything. Do not cut corners.

The officials at the airport were VERY helpful and got us through right away.

Good luck ! ! !

Retired2, thanks for the response. Quick question, What time of day did you pick up the dog? I'm unsure about later hour arrivals.

We were late out of Japan so it was about 3:00 AM.

The dogs were on the same flight as we were on and I assumed

that was the same with you.

Don't worry about the time of day. This is a huge airport with arrivals at ALL hours.

It is very busy even in the middle of the night.

Thanks, your assumption is correct I was told by someone that there was no Vet on duty after 24:00 and they had to call someone in.

Hearing you say 3:00am makes me feel better.
