Definitely a scam.

I did my ThaPass January and have been in Thailand since mid-February.

This has nothing to do with recent applications.

Yes, I got the same email today (arrived in Jan). It's from the same site that charges for Thaipass. Not sure how anyone falls for this nonsense?

I returned to the UK 2 weeks ago, after three great months in Thailand.

I received the same scam email today.

Do you have all the right documents in place you should get your pass within 7 days for free :

Paperwork needed :

1, vaccine passport ,

2,flight details ,

3, covid insurance ,

4, test and go hotel booked and paid for with a conformation letter from the hotel .

If you have all this in place it should only take a few day to get the Thai pass
