Sawadee kap! 

 I would love to take a flying trip to and back from London this December.

 But I don't have the first clue how to get this famous QR code on a volunteer visa. 

 A German friend went straight to the top man of the German embassy and got it all done plus a wee yellow book (WHO covid passport) in a day. 

 I that an option (UK obviously)? I am in bkk and happy to sit in some building all day if that's what it takes.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The poster is looking for advice on obtaining the necessary QR code for a trip from Thailand to London on a volunteer visa. They compare their situation to a friend's successful experience at the German embassy and express willingness to spend time to resolve the matter. Comments suggest applying for a re-entry permit and the Thailand Pass, while cautioning against leaving Thailand if the volunteer visa was obtained through unofficial channels.

If you are on a real volunteer visa...ok...with reentry permit.

But if on one ( bought in the grey market.)..suggest you don't leave Thailand.

You need to get a re-entry permit for your visa, and apply for the Thailand Pass online.

Neal Marshall. If you got vaccines in Thailand you will have been given a 13 digit number on the certificate after your second shot. You use that to register the Mor Phrom app, which is acceptable for entry to UK (and naturally re-entry to Thailand)
