COVID-19 Vaccination Vaccine Registration Thailand Pass Booster Shots Expat Advice

ORIGINAL POSTER

This is not a visa post but would like some insight (apologies if it has been asked before, I couldn't find ample info) 

I have 2 shots from another country (Indonesia) and am looking to get a booster here in Thailand. 

Does anyone know if I get a booster shot here, I can get my foreign shots registered onto the Thai system and obtain a QR code for ALL my shots (including the previous two in Indonesia - not just the booster I get in Bangkok?) 

This is to know if those QR codes would then be applicable for my Thailand Pass as I need to exit and re-enter the country. I remember my Thailand pass took quite some days to be approved last time as the Indonesian ones do not have a QR code. 

Thanks in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The query concerns the possibility of registering foreign COVID-19 vaccine shots taken in another country (Indonesia) onto the Thai vaccination system after receiving a booster shot in Thailand. The general consensus from the comments is that one cannot register non-Thai vaccines with the Thai system. Several users reported getting booster shots in Thailand and receiving a QR code for that shot only, without the ability to add previous foreign vaccinations to the system. Therefore, it seems that receiving a booster in Thailand would not allow for the registration of foreign vaccine shots, and users would need to manage separate certificates for their vaccine records.

thank you, I am aware of this.

My question was if I get booster (assuming they give me a Qar code for booster) would they allow me to add my foreign vaccines to the Thai system too.

As it is we cannot add foreign vaccines to Thai system to produce a QR code, I was hoping maybe a booster in Thailand might open a window for me to add in my previous shots too and generate a QR code for them (as they do in Europe)

Oh you mean your foreign vaccine cert is not having a qr code so you are checking if a booster shot can give you a qr code with these 3 shots? then the answer is no as they will treat that booster shot as your first shot in thailand and will only generate a qr code for that shot.

yes, that's what I mean. I was hoping that seeing I have 2 previous shots they might just register my previous two as well, as they do in some other countries.

well sorry but they wont do it. I had my booster here recently and my qr code is only for that shot, so now if i need to show my vaccine details, need to show 2 certs 😅

Thank you, will look into it! Does it generate a QR code for all shots and if yes - did you happen to use that code for Thailand Pass?
