TLDR : Answer Summary
Entering Thailand without a Thailand Pass code is not possible, as confirmed by multiple users in the discussion. Many shared their experiences regarding delays and issues with obtaining the pass, emphasizing the necessity of having the QR code to board flights. Advice was given to apply using a Gmail account for quicker responses, and to ensure all documentation is clear and properly formatted. There are also warnings about fake sites charging for the service, which is free.

I applied for a second time, but using my iPhone this time.

Made sure all photos were really clear and cropped.

It was an instant response, and the confirmation right there.

Couldn’t believe it. I had been waiting 8 working days

Try NHS “QR code” and use “gmail” as your email address. You should get Thailand pass QR code within an hr time.

Or you can ring Thai embassy: 02075892944 ext: 0 Between 14:00-17:00. Also, make sure you get your passport number ready as a staff would ask for it. You should get Thailand pass QR code through your email even before you hang up the phone.

I had to send in 2 because I changed my flight. On the second one I checked the box that asks if you have a QR code for your vaccine…and did that and had response in seconds with approval.

I did mine today. I cropped the QR codes from my Covid pass pdf (downloaded from the NHS app) and saved them as individual JPEG’s, uploaded everything they asked for and had my approval within 30mins. I also used a yahoo.co.uk email address. Hope you manage to get yours in time!

you need to upload the QR code’s and crop the photos. On every page of the thaialnd pass application, you have examples of what you need to do. If you follow the examples exactly, you shouldn’t have a problem.
