(Not sure if allowed here)

Seeking advice for something a bit urgent. My wife will have her medical check at Bumrungrad in order to get the CR1 visa (marriage) to go to America. For this she needs all vaccinations. She has no record of these. Bumrungrad can do the whole process but if we get the vaccines there it will be around 30k total for the health check + vaccines

I’ve been recommended by another expat to first go to a government hospital to get an antibody test to see what vaccines are already in my wife’s system (she lost her records). Then we can see what she needs and have it done cheaper outside of Bumrungrad

I’m wondering if anyone else has done this process for their spouse and if you have any advice. Just looking for the most cost effective way.

The medical exam itself can only be done at two hospitals and this was confirmed by the embassy

Thank you

Question for people who have brought pets to Thailand from USA. I was wondering what the process was like with airlines + Bangkok airport regarding pet docs. We’ve been planning to bring our two cats (indoor, never go outside) and had read through all the requirements (shots, import permit, health certificate, etc.) but just recently had our process brought to a halt by the vet that we had gone to originally.

We leave in less than two weeks but now the vet is saying they won’t do the health certificate unless we go get another round of shots and then wait 21 days, which is past our departure date and all of our flights + accomodations are non-refundable and already booked.

We have certificates and receipts of their vaccinations for rabies + feline panleukemia from last month but it seems like there’s a chance that even with a new vet we might not be able to get the health certificate in time.

From what I read about most things in thailand, it sounds like certain laws are followed very strictly while others are more loosely followed / can be solved with paying a fee and talking and I was curious what it’s like for pet import. Thanks in advance.

I am in the process of completing the final steps for my wife to immigrate to the USA. She needs to have about a dozen vaccinations that are required. I was surprised at the cost of these at the hospitals in Pattaya and Jomtien. About 20,000 tb. Is their a cheaper alternative for vaccinations there?

Hello everyone!

URGENT

I am travelling to Thailand from London (I have Spanish nationality).

-Do I need a tourist visa? I will only be there for 1 month

-Do I need to get vaccinations? Do you know any place where I can get them?

-I have read about a health insurance called IATI, do you recommend it? Do you know of any health insurance that would work for me?

I would be very grateful if you could answer these questions as I have been asking around but I will be more reassured if someone gives me their opinion.

I accept all kinds of recommendations, it's my first trip so far away, I'm new to this!

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi I was curious what everyone’s thoughts are regarding vaccinations when visiting or living in Thailand! Since there aren’t any mandatory vaccinations I’m interested to see what people are getting, if any at all. Thanks in advance!
