Hi everyone, I’m getting all my documents sorted for my trip to Thailand. Does anyone know how many copies of each document would I need? Would two copies of each document suffice? I have already done my research and I know what documents I need. I would just like to know how many copies should I get printed. Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The consensus on the number of document copies needed for traveling to Thailand varies, with most users suggesting having at least two copies for safety. Some travelers recommend bringing three copies of each document, especially for specific airline requirements, such as COVID tests and fit-to-fly certificates. Ultimately, the requirements may depend on the airline, country of origin, and individual circumstances.

With everything, always make one extra set of copies for your records, because you never really know what might change.

Consensus is there is no standard. Each airline/airport/country of origin seems to process documents differently.

In my case, I took three copies of each possibly required document. Some documents I prepared were unneeded.

Of the documents of interest, they were examined, (in some cases photographed) and all were returned to me.

(San Francisco/Doha/Bangkok on Qatar Airways)

QATAR SFO: COE, COVID test, Fit to Fly, insurance, visa (if any), proof of onward travel, ASQ booking

QATAR DOH: No documents requested

Immigration, BKK: COVID test, insurance, visa (if any), ASQ Booking, T-8 declaration

Your experience may vary. My advice would be to bring two copies each, just in case.

thanks for the detailed response. I’m taking Qatar (Brazil/Doha/Bangkok). Qatar requires copies of the fit to fly and covid test at check in. Saw this on their website. I think I’ll do what you did and bring three copies each.

I usually teach every summer at a Red Brick UK uni but not this year. I don’t fancy the new UK quarantine rules nor getting stuck there, locked inside the UK. Its a basket case now and afterwards, I’d also have to jump through the Thai hoops when I returned.

Good luck Cheryl at least your government has not banned you from travel

Here in Australia we are banned from international travel our country is a prison , looks as if that will not change even if vaccinated

Australia is about the only country in the world to ban its citizens from travel .
