Hi,  I need to ask a question please: in order to enter Thailand do you know if vaccination certificates from non English languages are accepted?  My 3 vaccinations were done in Vietnam, in Vietnamese language:; please advice. Thanks ( the title.of my certificate has an English translation on top, just the stamp is in Vietnamese)

Answer summary

The inquiry is about the acceptance of vaccination certificates in languages other than English for entry into Thailand, specifically a certificate from Vietnam in Vietnamese. Responses indicate that while English translations may help, there is no definitive answer as experiences vary; it's suggested to have documentation ready for random checks.

I've no idea about Vietnam but Thailand issue an international certificate. I used that to fly back to Thailand from the UK last week, it was checked by my airline when checking in. No mention of it on arrival in Thailand.

You can get randomly asked before immigration (I got asked when I arrived ) so make sure you have certificate ready if you get selected

i get it but my question was different: I asked about the language of the paper. Mine was done in Vietnam. In the title of my certificate there is, though, an English denomination "certificate of COVID 19 vaccination" , just the red stamp and signature are in Vietnamese
