Glad to hear people are getting their Thai Pass quickly, my last obstacle seems to be the hardest and that's getting the NHS to email me an updated covid pass! Having trouble as my wife and I both have different phone numbers to when we first used the app and are locked out until the system updates our phone numbers.

@Grant ******
thanks, typically it started working a few minutes after.. However, I've been up all night after I realised a worse problem of my own stupid making, I forgot that my covid vaccination pass has a valid until date.. and couldn't upload a new one from the NHS app as I have a different phone number now, so I had the phone number changed but it takes 24 hours to update for security reasons. Our flight is on the 3rd of May, so I'm absolutely bricking it now. All this just to get home 😩

yeah I've been doing that today with loads of pdf docs, such a pain! Now I've got to wait 24 hrs for my phone number to reset on my NHS account before I can access it 🤦🏼‍♂️

@Stewart *********
balls I'd better get on it! How long did it take to get a new one on the app?

Does it matter if the proof of vaccination (covid pass) with QR code is expired? I got mine in UK months ago and I didn't give a thought to needing a new one!

I'm pretty sure it just goes on Thai time. It seems to be better now anyway, cheers

Yeah if check your details it'll probably say "baggage not checked through", so by having to leave immigration to collect your baggage, you're technically entering Thailand and so need a Thailand Pass and still travel/medical insurance covering covid for $10,000. You'll need to wait until the restrictions requiring you get tested at a hotel are stopped on the 29th April first.

Thanks a lot for your reply
@David ******
I'm very glad to hear that! Yeah I'll be applying the minute it's updated. I got the AXA Thailand insurance to be safe.

I have now successfully changed my flights to the 3rd of May and so won't have to get the hotel and the tests! Thanks everyone for the advice...now we just have to hope to Buddha that once we apply for the Thailand Pass at 12.01 on the 29th of April, that it's given in time for the 3rd! 🙏🏻😅
