Hi, tried the search bar, but still confused on current requirements. Flying June 25 to stay for 90 days - SETV for 60 plus 30 day extension. 

- Do I need to apply for COE separately or does that come with SETV?

- For Thai pass, do I only need 30 days insurance or the full 90? Do they accept foreign health insurance?

-Can I just show proof of accommodation for first night? (im still deciding where to stay on my trip)

-Fully vaccinated so no covid test needed correct? 

-Recommendation for onward ticket bc I'll be extending 30 days while I'm there?

Sorry for so many questions. Thank you for your help.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking clarification on several entry requirements for Thailand associated with their upcoming trip. They plan to travel on a Special Tourist Visa (SETV) for 90 days (60 days plus a 30-day extension) and are asking about the necessity of a Certificate of Entry (COE), the duration of required travel insurance, accommodation proof, vaccination status in relation to testing, and advice on an onward ticket. The answers indicated that a COE isn't needed, a Thailand Pass is required with 60 days of insurance, only proof of accommodation for the first couple of days is necessary, vaccination means no COVID test is needed, and a changeable onward ticket within 60 days is advisable.

1. You don’t need a COE.

2. You do need a ThailandPass. You’ll need insurance for 60 days.

3. Only the first couple of days needed for accommodation details.

4. You’ll be best to have an onward ticket within 60 days. Get a changeable one and just change the date when here.

Hey Josh! It's been a while.

I know this response is late but in case anyone else is looking...

In my experience airlines don't ask for a return or onward flight.

If you can check in online then you bypass the check altogether (I know not always possible).

That’s up to your airline. Some will let you board without some won’t. If it’s a long haul flight they’re more likely to require a ticket out.
