Will the Thai Consulate in the US verify my onward travel for a SETV application and is a yellow fever vaccination necessary if I've traveled to Colombia?

Question

Alright I have two questions... Will the Thai Consulate in the U.S. check the validity of my onward travel for a SETV? I got a 24hour cancellation flight out of Thailand before 60 days but the Thai Ambassador is apparently out of town and not processing applications at the moment. I canceled the flight but should I book a new one or just give them my already printed out itinerary for cancelled flight. I leave in 3 1/2 weeks. Also, there was a girl from Colombia asking about yellow fever vaccinations and not being allowed into Thailand. I was recently in Colombia for 2 months. I’ve returned to the US, hold a US passport and will be traveling to Thailand from the US. I do not have yellow fever vaccination. Will the Colombian stamp in my passport raise questions/will I be denied? Thanks.

Ask Thailand · Answer

The user inquires whether the Thai Consulate in the US will check the validity of their onward flight for a Single Entry Tourist Visa (SETV) since their original flight has been canceled, and they are uncertain about using a canceled flight itinerary. They also express concern about entry requirements related to yellow fever vaccinations due to their recent travel to Colombia, particularly if their US passport will face scrutiny upon arrival in Thailand.

I was just asking if I could use the printout. Do they verify it?  I’ll just book another one. No big deal. Not trying to hustle them, just trying to save myself from doing it twice

As far as proof of the yellow fever vaccination it states you have to hold nationality from one of the listed countries OR you have to have your flight originate from one of those countries comin' to thailand.

I'd say you're okay. BUT that's only a guess (educated as it is ;) )

Okay, so let me see if I understand this. You are trying to use a canceled flight out of thailand to meet the proof of onward travel requirement? Does that about sum it up?
