Immigration Division 1 Bangkok Vaccine Certificate Visa Extension Immigration Policies COVID-19 Regulations Expats in Thailand

ORIGINAL POSTER

Just at immigration (Division 1 Bangkok for extension)

Not sure if been shared or not but they just refused me entry to building without proof of my vaccine certificate. After about 3 minutes of saying that, she then said I can enter but I have to fill out a form.

I also logged in the mochana app and when I went to counter to get a number the guy told me to login. I showed him i had already but apparently it wasn't the same....(it was)🤣

I love this country but why is the immigration such a nightmare.

That's because they didn't. They are asking about scanning in and out using Thai Wins.

Here's what the poster is saying. He went to Bangkok Immigration, they said "show me your proof of vaccination". He said "no". The officer at the door said "fill out the form". He was let in.

I don’t understand what you’re saying here. You are vaccinated or not?

They refused you entry because you didn’t have proof of vaccination?

So you had proof or you didn’t?

hm.., so you had a Thai Pass or a COE and everything else was in order but you just weren’t carrying the actual CDC card or whatever proof you had of being vaccinated?

Funny, almost everyone reports never being asked for proof of vax after submitting it to Thai Pass
