Do recovered non-vaccinated travelers need to choose alternative quarantine options for the Thai Pass?
For the thai pass, do i have to chose alternative quarantine if i am recovered non vaccinated?
Answer summary
If you are a recovered non-vaccinated traveler entering Thailand, you are generally required to undergo a 5-day quarantine. However, it's important to note that the hotels available for alternative quarantine may differ from those allocated for the sandbox program. Be sure to choose a hotel that is approved for alternative quarantine, rather than simply booking a SHA Plus hotel intended for sandbox travelers.

OPI know i need to quarantine 5 days. What I mean is that apparently the hotels for alternative quarantine are different than for sandbox. I booked a SHA + but it is not in the list for alternative, only for sandbox...

you cannot quarantine unless the hotel is specifically designated as an AQ hotel and sells special 5 day quarantine packages. You can't just book 5 days regularly at a hotel. You mention sandbox, which is pretty much only in Phuket. There are no more quarantine hotels in Phuket. Only in Bangkok as far as I know.

This is from the TAT website relating to T&G. The last dot point relates to the certificate of recovery which can be submitted in lieu of one vaccine dose.

It states that you need 1 dose post infection. This person is asking for non-vaccinated. Why do you say the recovery certificate negates the vaccine? That is not what's written there.

Non-vaccinated must undertake five days hotel quarantine.Brandon ************
Unvaccinated is unvaccinated. You are required to do 5 days quarantine if you enter and you are not vaccinated.

5 days quarantine at the moment. Lucky it’s not 10 like I had to do in January.

I think before if you recovered in the last 90 days it was also under test and go?Brandon ************
@Joakim *******
no. That's never been the case. The rule was if you got 1 dose of vaccine within 90 days of recovery it would count as fully vaccinated. But just recovery means nothing.Jon *****
@Brandon ***********
Agree fully, I was only stating some countries consider a recovery is equivalent to a jabBrandon ************
@Jon ********
the Thai guidelines are very specific. You have to have received 1 dose AFTER recovery for it to count, and you must have a medical certificate of recovery also.Jon *****
@Brandon ***********
Not saying you are wrong for Thailand but in France for instance a recovery counts for one jab, it's converted on your vaccine passActivity
