I am in the USA now. I had a bad rotator cuff tear that looks like it will need surgery and therapy. With no insurance I want to go straight to BKK.
I have already been in and out of Thailand 5 times within a year. So I don’t get turned around at immigration and can stay full length of treatment I would like to apply for medical visa.
Every Thai embassy website asks for 2 things.
1. appointment letter with treatment details
2. Hospital / medical facility registration certificate
Every hospital wants to offer me an appointment slip and a letter with treatment details. Every hospital is also confused by the meaning of #2 above. I understand #2 to mean the certificate they get from government agency to be a medical facility.
Does anyone know what I need to submit? I’m in pain and the visa application already takes 10 days. Trying to get this right the first time. Thanks in advance.🙏🙏
TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual is seeking a medical visa to Thailand for rotator cuff surgery and is facing difficulties understanding the required documentation. They need two main documents for the visa application: an appointment letter with treatment details and a hospital registration certificate. After contacting the embassy, they learned that the registration certificate refers to the hospital's certificate to practice medicine, which can be obtained from the Ministry of Health in Thailand. The user plans to submit their application promptly due to time constraints and pain.
