For anyone who has come from yellow fever listed country recently. Has anything changed when i arrived in early May did the T.8 also did the TDAC and both of them have to submit yellow fever cert and went to counter at swampy and did the same. Asked lady at counter then and she said still have to do all and they hadnt been advised any differently. Nothing on T.8 page
Answer summary
Travelers from yellow fever-list countries must still submit yellow fever certification upon entering Thailand. Recent experiences indicate that the T.8 and TDAC forms are being utilized interchangeably, though some travelers have reported discrepancies with the QR code system associated with the T.8 form. There's been no official announcement of changes to these requirements, and some users have voiced frustration over the lack of updated information on the T.8 process.

Hi, I will be in Nairobi for a week, not visiting any outer areas. I have a medical exemption from my doctor for the yellow fever vaccination; will I be able to enter Thailand?

Hi Tracey, from what I’ve seen, Thailand still strictly requires yellow fever vaccination certificates from travelers coming from listed countries, and medical exemptions are usually not accepted at the border. You might want to check with your airline or the nearest Thai embassy before you travel to avoid any issues.

Thanks

You’re welcome, Tracey. Just make sure to have all your documents ready and maybe double-check with the embassy to be safe. Safe travels!

I came back in May and used the T8 at the quarantine counter. When I came back again in June, the T8 website no longer returned a QR code, even though it doesn't tell you that it's been replaced. I used the TDAC - with essentially the same information - and I guess that was fine, since I got through.

BTW, I thought that perhaps the T8 system had only been disabled for foreigners, but it no longer worked for my Thai wife as well. If they don't use it anymore, it would be nice if they stopped telling users "you'll receive a QR code within two hours", since that's clearly no longer the case 😕

obviously you are not experienced enough to know that there will be many touch points where you need to verify your status. Like showing your passport many times in the same facility (like an airport) Same when in Covid times we had to show vaccination status many times.

As for Covid very aware of that, I was one of the first foreigner's to get approval to come into the country in July 2020, you are welcome to read my detailed account of all the different verifications I had to do. The first time was most difficult the two times after that were easier
