Just at immigration (Division 1 Bangkok for extension)

Not sure if been shared or not but they just refused me entry to building without proof of my vaccine certificate. After about 3 minutes of saying that, she then said I can enter but I have to fill out a form.

I also logged in the mochana app and when I went to counter to get a number the guy told me to login. I showed him i had already but apparently it wasn't the same....(it was)šŸ¤£

I love this country but why is the immigration such a nightmare.

@Mma ******
That's because they didn't. They are asking about scanning in and out using Thai Wins.

They all like to feel important & in charge with the upper hand here.

Donā€™t you know Thaiā€™s by now ?

At Buriram Immigration office we went to get Thai passports for family. They wanted proof of vaccination. Just showed them Mor Phrom app vax status. All good.

Here's what the poster is saying. He went to Bangkok Immigration, they said "show me your proof of vaccination". He said "no". The officer at the door said "fill out the form". He was let in.

**Sorry forgot to say Immigration Division 1 Bangkok**

Note: You don't NEED to be vaccinated but they made a massive song and dance out of it.

how were you refused entry? You are already in. Are you actually talking about getting an extension?

@Lyndon ***********
he means literal entry to the building I believe. They wouldn't let him in to get his extension at first lol

I donā€™t understand what youā€™re saying here. You are vaccinated or not?

They refused you entry because you didnā€™t have proof of vaccination?

So you had proof or you didnā€™t?

I don't think you have to be vaccinated. Not according to the third " scheme"!?!

@James **********
Source on this please?
Curtis *******
@Ryan ****
hm.., so you had a Thai Pass or a COE and everything else was in order but you just werenā€™t carrying the actual CDC card or whatever proof you had of being vaccinated?

Funny, almost everyone reports never being asked for proof of vax after submitting it to Thai Pass
Benjamin ******
Which office? This is a new policy
