Can non-residents obtain a booster jab in Thailand?
Hi is it possible to obtain a booster jab in Thailand if you are not Thai resident? Thanks
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.

@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 *******
OP@Edna ******
yes I have had 2 AZ jabs and I think they do administer Pfizer IN Thailand if you have had 2 AZ jabsEdna *******
@Michael ******
mixing is recommended these days, the US is now doing it also.Michael ********
@Michael ******
