What happens if my COE application for Thailand is rejected?

The Certificate of Entry (COE) application process in Thailand is free to apply for. In the event of a COE rejection, the implications for your expenses can vary. Hotels may offer refunds ranging from 80-90% or may allow you to change your booking dates with or without fees. However, airline tickets typically follow a more strict cancellation policy and may not offer refunds solely based on a rejected COE, unless there is a more substantial reason. It’s advisable to check with your airline regarding their specific policies and potential for free changes.
