TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, non-residents can obtain a COVID-19 booster jab in Thailand. Locations such as Chiang Mai, Asiatique, and Bang Sue station offer free vaccinations. While some places may check documentation, many individuals report minimal verification of residency status. Private hospitals also administer vaccines, but availability may depend on specific locations and the type of vaccine offered.

Yes...but you will not be able to get to the front of the line, so to speak. It is Thais first. Also depends upon vaccine availability and length of time from when you received your second jab. As a side note: check the US Embassy website as there are jabs being offered in CM and BKK hospitals and other locations now.

I had an appointment but they didn't bother to check. I booked the last slot 4pm-5pm. All together 1 hour including 20 min observation time after vaccine.

@Michael *******

Edna *******
@Michael ******

@Edna ******
yes I have had 2 AZ jabs and I think they do administer Pfizer IN Thailand if you have had 2 AZ jabs
Edna *******
@Michael ******
thanks fir your response. I’ve had a booster. At one time The US would not mix jabs, but since then have authorized mixing manufacturers. My Thai sweetheart got two jabs different manufacturers. All is well, not due for booster yet. It’s great that Thailand finally rolled out vaccinations properly, my guy had to wait a long time in the Isaan area.

@Michael ******
pzier its open every week day i think until stocks run out.

They will need your passport and copy of vaccination records, has to be six months since your last one.

@Michael *******
At least for illegal immigrants from other SEA countries they don't check the visa.
