Easy Steps to Apply for Thailand Pass

Thailand has recently reopened the country to travelers, both Thais and foreigners whether vaccinated or unvaccinated. In this newsletter, you will learn about the Easy Steps in Applying for a Thailand Pass.

Step 1: Visit the official Thailand Pass website

You may go to the official website: https://tp.consular.go.th/ 

Once there, you may choose the option for Non-Thai Nationals or Thai Nationals.

Visit the official Thailand Pass website

 

After that you will be directed to a page where you can choose the entry program:

  • Test and Go program for fully vaccinated travelers entering any international airport and land border in Thailand
  • Sandbox program for fully vaccinated travelers entering Pattaya, Phuket, or Samui only.
  • Alternative Quarantine for partially vaccinated and unvaccinated travelers.

Note: Since the Test and Go program is open to travelers from all countries and it is available in most provinces in Thailand arriving by air, land, or sea, there is no point to apply for the Thailand Pass under the Sandbox program which is only limited to certain areas such as Phuket, Samui, and Pattaya.

Choose the Entry Program

Step 2: Details of your Arrival

In this part, you will provide the purpose of travel to Thailand whether for tourism or if you are a returning resident.

You will also provide your country of departure, airport of arrival, flight number, date of arrival, and proposed exit date from Thailand.

For travelers to Phuket and Samui, only sealed flights are allowed. If you are not traveling on a sealed flight to these islands, you must stay overnight in Bangkok, do a one night Test and Go stay before you can fly to Phuket or Samui.

Step 3. Provide your Personal Information

In this part, you will provide your full name as stated in your passport or travel document, nationality, passport number, date of birth, and email address. Please make sure that you check the correct spelling of your personal information before you proceed to the next step. It is also recommended to use a GMAIL email account when applying for Thailand Pass.

Provide your Personal Information

Step 4. Upload Proof of Vaccination 

In this part, you will provide your vaccination information. You will provide the name or brand of your vaccination and also the date of vaccination. You will be able to upload a JPG or PNG file of your proof of vaccination. 

For faster processing of your Thailand Pass, it is recommended to also upload the QR code of your vaccination document if it is available. 

Note: If you are applying under the Quarantine Program and you are not fully vaccinated, you may skip this part of the process.

Step 5: Provide Your Hotel Details

In this part, you will be required to provide the details of your SHA+ or AQ hotel reservation. You will provide the type of accommodation, name, and address, reservation number, and the check-in and check-out dates. If you are applying under the test and go program, you are required to book for Day 1. For the Sandbox program, you will book for at least 7 nights. And for the Alternative Quarantine program, you must book at least 10 nights. Please make sure that the hotel reservation is fully paid in order for your hotel to approve your Thailand Pass application. 

For travelers entering Phuket or spending their second COVID test in Phuket, you will be able to book your RT PCR test at www.thailandpsas.com and provide the receipt number when you fill out the information on this part of the process.

In this part, you will also provide your address in the country of departure, your contact number, your emergency contact person, and his or her contact number.

Step 6: Submit your AXA COVID 19 Insurance 

In this part, you will provide the COVID 19 Insurance. You must provide the policy number, start date of the insurance policy and upload the one-page document of your certificate of insurance. Based on experience, it is recommended to use AXA Thailand Insurance as it is the best insurance provider and they will issue a one-page document written specifically for your Thailand Pass application.

Also, in this part, you are able to upload additional documents such as the RT PCR test receipt or additional insurance documents such as birth certificate if you are traveling with your child.

Correct COVID Insurance for Thailand Pass

The Thailand Pass requirement for the COVID Travel Insurance has been reduced to 20,000 USD from the original 50,000 USD requirement. Insurance policies with 50,000 USD or 100,000 USD coverage will remain valid. 

Based on experience, the common problem for Thailand Pass applications being rejected is that some insurance policies are not properly worded. Your COVID-19 insurance must expressly state that it covers up to 20,000 USD medical expenses including COVID-19 while in Thailand. 

You may use your own health insurance or purchase insurance from your own country, however, it is recommended to purchase from an insurance company in Thailand such as AXA Insurance Thailand to make sure that you meet the requirement in obtaining the Thailand Pass successfully. 

  • Your certificate of insurance will expressly state that it covers up to 20,000 USD medical expenses including COVID-19. It will also state that the certificate is issued for the purpose of the Thailand Pass application.
  • The AXA Sawasdee Thailand provides a one-page certificate of insurance which is perfect for the Thailand Pass application since the system will only allow one-page document to be uploaded.
  • Your insurance letter or certificate will also contain the policy number and date of effectivity or start date. 
  • The AXA Insurance policy must be effective before or on the date of arrival and during your entire length of stay.

When you submit your AXA Thailand Pass Insurance, please make sure that you attach or upload the correct document as below:
