The International Community is encouraged to donate! ALL Nationalities are Welcomed.

And now UK, France and Ireland donors who were previously unable to donate have been Welcomed Back at Bangkok and Chiang Mai. Special processing for blood.

Donor Eligibility Update: Donors from the United Kingdom are Welcomed Back at the National Blood Centre in Bangkok and Chiang Mai Red Cross.

Please donate! All Blood Types needed, but.... Rh-Negative is extremely Rare in the Thai population. Over 20% of UK donors are Rh-Negative.

The message encourages all nationalities, especially expatriates from the UK, France, and Ireland, to donate blood in Thailand. It specifically highlights the need for Rh-Negative blood, which is rare in the Thai population.
