Can I buy COVID-19 tests on my own for entry into Thailand instead of through the hotel?

Mitchell *******

For Phuket, you test at the airport. You have to book this separately from the hotel, but the hotel will want to see proof. The link to the Phuket testing site is on The Thai pass website.

What should I do if my PCR test is positive but ATK tests are negative and I have no symptoms?

Mitchell *******

Your vaccines and immune system are doing its job. Keeping it low. PCR is much more sensitive. You may be low enough to test negative on a 2nd PCR test.

What should you do if you test positive for COVID-19 on day 5 in Thailand?

Mitchell *******

I BELIEVE, you self police yourself and self isolate if you can for a few days, if you have mild or no symptoms. At this point, I believe the day 5 reporting is for statistical purposes.

What type of visa do Canadians and British permanent residents need for a visit to Thailand and Bali in late 2022 and early 2023?

Mitchell *******

Technically, if you split up your first 2 months with a side trip somewhere, or extend, you wouldn't need a visa as both countries (Definitely UK) are visa exempt for 30 days in Thailand. And UK doesn't need one for Bali either (And I believe Canada is the same).

Will UK £50 notes still be accepted at currency exchanges in Thailand after they go out of circulation?

Mitchell *******

I exchanged two 50 pound notes about 15 minutes ago in Patong with no issue.

Do you need a COVID test for a layover in Japan when flying from Bangkok to Canada?

Mitchell *******

Yes, but if you are vaccinated, you do not need covid tests to transit Tokyo, or enter Canada. The OP is transiting through Tokyo, and entering Canada. (I don't know for unvaxed transitting though as far as transit through Tokyo.)

Do you need a COVID test for a layover in Japan when flying from Bangkok to Canada?

Mitchell *******

I will be doing this flight in a few weeks. As of now, no testing at all needed if you are transitting. Japan have just changed the rules for anyone actually entering Japan, but transit at the same airport (not getting luggage, not passing immigration etc) is all good.

Should I reapply for the Thai Pass after my initial application for the Sandbox program?

Mitchell *******

If you were planning to spend at least 7 days on Phuket anyway, then it actually doesn't matter.

Which banks in Thailand allow you to open an account without a work permit or visa?

Mitchell *******

Yes, this question is asked quite a lot.

Take your Thai gf/wife/partner with you, and let her do the talking. That greatly enhances your chances. You will need to show your passport/visa, and I was also asked for the foreign bank account most of my funds would be coming from.
