I think you will find that there where some changes. One being if you arrive after December 15th you cannot apply for your pass until December 1st my question was is a pass issued prior to December 1st still valid to enter in January 2022

OK have your way Garrett but try checking a QR code for one issued prior to December 1st for entry in January 2022 you may find that it is not now valid. As has happened to a friend of mine.

Everyone has a friend that knows a friend that did something somewhere. I haven't seen a single person have their Thaipass "no longer valid".
