Saw some news reports Khaosod, that Thailand Health Pass is required for travellers from 43 countries with risk of mpox infection, mainly Africa and South America and same as list of countries where yellow fever vaccination is required

Can not find any online reporting forms, I am travelling from Africa and always use the T.8 form for registering but don’t see any mpox entry fields

Any experience anyone? Guess boarding will be rejected if not in possession of this Health Pass?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation discusses the requirements for travelers to Thailand from countries at risk of mpox infection, primarily in Africa and South America. Despite some news reports suggesting the need for a Health Pass, several commenters clarify that only the yellow fever vaccination (Yellow card) and the T.8 form are required. Others confirm they've received mixed messages, but the airport authorities in their locations appear to not have implemented any new regulations concerning mpox or additional health documentation.

go to Health, they will scan your QR code and give you a sticker for immigration. Without this sticker immigration will send you back to Health when they see your boarding pass

you fill in online and get a confirmation QR code to show on arrival or show at departure airport if they as, called Thai Health Pass and was designed for yellow fever but apparently now also covering Mpox, some of the questionnaire cover same symptoms like fever etc

@Poul *********
thank you. I looked at the online Thai Health Pass registration, it requires a code from filling up the T8? The T8 form is a physical form so how would one get the access code? Am I on the right track? Thansj

Not true. The only needed vaccination is if you are coming from a Yellow fever country.
