I’m arriving on 21/4  to Phuket  with my daughter .

I applied for Thai pass , sandbox . After reading some comments here I think I should have applied for Test and go . Should I re apply ? 

I am triple vaccinated and my daughter has recovered from covid , she has a medical letter regarding this .

I have already booked Graceland Phuket , that is a SHA plus hotel .

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user plans to travel to Phuket with their daughter and has applied for the Thai Pass under the Sandbox program. They are reconsidering and asking if they should reapply for the Test and Go program instead. Other users in the comments suggest that since the user is staying in Phuket for at least 7 days and has a SHA Plus hotel booking, the current application may suffice, and reapplying might not be necessary.

If you were planning to spend at least 7 days on Phuket anyway, then it actually doesn't matter.

If you're just staying in Phuket anyway it doesn't really matter much.

You can roam freely on Phuket for 7 days, and after that you can go to the rest of Thailand if you so choose.

. It doesn't really matter. If you'd planned on five days in Phuket it's virtually the same as T&G. If it's any help, there has been substantially less people testing positive in Phuket.
