ORIGINAL POSTER

I saw on here that someone said their US CDC card was rejected several times while applying. Not sure who it was but is that a thing? What can we do if so?

TLDR : Answer Summary

Concerns have arisen regarding the acceptance of US CDC cards for the Certificate of Entry (COE) during visa applications to Thailand, with some accounts of rejection. However, many believe such rejections should not occur as the CDC card serves as the primary proof of vaccination for many Americans. It's essential to understand the current policies regarding document acceptance to avoid confusion.

Shouldn't be a thing. They were accepted for COE and it's the only proof many Americans have. It's a little early for anyone to be jumping to conclusions.

also I think all our CDC cards are the same so the embassies should be well aware

It's been reported (but not confirmed) that the embassies are no longer involved and it's purely people in Thailand making the approvals now.

I don’t think they’re all the same. I’ve seen a couple of variations.

Probably get a faster approval if you transfer 1000 baht and include the transfer slip as one of the uploads 😂
