So, the new that has been added is to tell the first day where you will stay on day 6-7 for your 2nd PCR test. How would I know where I stay by then! I need to check how to get to Krabi and that might be by train. Or if stay in Bangkok I will stay in Banglamphoo but not sure where before I am actually there. So is it really necessery to provide the info on your first day on the "Port Health Letter" as it is called? Flying in to Bangkok Test & Go.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the requirements for providing accommodation details in the Port Health Letter upon arrival in Thailand under the Test & Go scheme. There is uncertainty regarding whether travelers need to specify their exact accommodation for the second PCR test scheduled on days 6-7 after arrival. Contributors note that planning ahead can help, and some have reported needing to show proof of accommodation upon entering the country. Others share their experiences and suggestions on what to do if accommodation is not confirmed.

Arrived in Phuket on 25th Dec. No info given regarding 2nd PCR or pink form at the airport. The hotel staff is not aware of this either.

Had one what? Booking? My subject is IF we don't know for sure where we will be...can we leave that section in the form to filled out later. I stay alot with Thai friends and I need to get out on the town to check how to get to Krabi. But it seams better to stay arround for a week so all is clear.

There's actually a list of all the hospitals I saw it on another post, there's actually loads, a couple in every province from what I saw, there were two I can go to here in Sa keao, as fly out on Thursday and come back on the 5th, so I was wondering what I was going to do as well, I'm sure you can find the lost easy enough

I don't suppose you know where you saw that list?

Curious to know what the options are for my parents when they arrive soon.

Sounds straight forward to me, if it's asked for on a document, you need to do it. Maybe with a little pre-planning you can work out where you'll be.

Depends on if I can get train tickets or not. That I can't know before been out of my first day test & go hotel. But yes, sounds like best option is to waste a week in Bangkok to start with.

Most reports are of people being assigned bangkok hospitals. Not even sure yet if you're supposed to be allowed to leave the city until your second test.

But if you are allowed to leave then yes you must give them where you will be so they can schedule your second test.

@Jim **********
what did they tell you about your second PCR test?

Did you get the pink form at the airport? Did you have to tell them where you were going to schedule your test?

@Brandon ***********
got pink form yes, clinic gave me ATK kit to test myself day 7. Nobody told me anything else

@Jim **********
pink form is to get your free pcr from government hospital

@Jim **********
the new law requires PCR. It's all a mess. Maybe they're hoping it will go back to normal on January 4th so they don't have to follow through with all the changes

Not allowed to leave the city??? Then it's same as Sandbox. And it's not. So I think you are free to go.

@Atte ******
if you have to get tested in Bangkok a week after you arrive, you're free to go but will have to return. Unless you want to be hunted down like the Israeli man in the news recently

Do you know the test has to be in same town as you arrive?

@Atte ******
the system is a mess still. Very inconsistent. People in Phuket are getting different information than people in Bangkok. Some people aren't getting anything. I honestly have no idea what the true answer is or who can give it at this point. It's possible people can just fall through the cracks, but it's a risky/scary proposition.
