Hello, I'm from Costa Rica and I need a visa to enter Thailand I know, I'm only going for a week, it's enough with the Thailand pass or I definitely need the visa.

They tell me that for the time I go with the Thailand pass it is enough, the information is correct?

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired about visa requirements for Costa Ricans traveling to Thailand for a week, questioning whether the Thailand Pass suffices for entry. Comments clarified that a tourist visa is necessary for entry regardless of the Thailand Pass, which is separate and only relates to COVID requirements. Specific advice was given to check with a Thai embassy for Costa Rican entry rules and to complete visa and Thailand Pass applications.

Once you have the visa sorted, for Thailand Pass this is the official site. It is free. You get QR code immediately after registration.

Check your nearest Thai embassy for the entry rules for Costa Ricans.

You will need a Thai Pass along with any potential visa. The Thai pass is not a visa or entry document. It's just stupid covid bs bureaucracy.

The Thailand pass and a visa/visa exemption/visa on arrival are completely different things. All non Thais need to apply for the Thai pass and is to ensure you meet the current covid requirements. Whether you can then enter without acquiring a visa beforehand depends on the country your passport was issued from.

you will need a tourist visa and a Thailand pass. You can go to the Thailand embassy website and follows links to get both yourself. It’s an easy process.

is that for your tourist visa, I take it? Tourist visa applications can be done online now for many countries. Do you have a Thai embassy in Costa Rica and do you know what the process is for there? If you do have a Thai embassy in Costa Rica, go to their website and look if the process can be done online.

you'd be better off asking on a Vietnam expats forum then as the agent will be in Vietnam and not Thailand.

With a Costa Rican passport you’ll need a tourist visa.
