This person sounded like they didn't do enough research beforehand since things like needing a COE or a fit to fly certificate should have been known. A lot of their headache is from them making assumptions instead of doing lots of reading to prepare themselves for the process and making sure they fulfilled all the requirements. Nothing they describe is particularly extraordinary for what the procedure is that people should know by now if they read groups like Thai Expats Stranded Overseas due to COVID-19 Restrictions and 🇹🇭 Farangs Stranded Abroad Due to lockdown in Thailand

Join these Facebook groups then search them. There are probably a hundred posts about testing places and other specifics for those from the USA. 🇹🇭 Farangs Stranded Abroad Due to lockdown in Thailand and Thai Expats Stranded Overseas due to COVID-19 Restrictions

Join these groups and search for "Los Angeles" or "LAX" and you'll see tons of posts of the clinics for both the test and the fit-to-fly with lots of helpful details about price, turnaround time, and any issues: 🇹🇭 Farangs Stranded Abroad Due to lockdown in Thailand and Thai Expats Stranded Overseas due to COVID-19 Restrictions. It seems most people are recommending Genix, MyConciergeMD and Passport Health. Also join ASQ Hotel Review if you're trying to decide on the ASQ hotel.

Only the red starred fields are required. For visa type, you can select 45 for Thailand Elite. They still have it listed as Privilege.

Do I select option

3 (Non 90) or Option 4 (1 year) in my situation where I am on my one year extension of stay stamp which extends my original Non-B visa sticker?

This is the website to use:

Nathan Aiyna Sassen ATMs are only in the domestic terminal for arrivals. None before immigration for international arrivals so you can't withdraw cash to show to immigration if required. And when you depart from Thailand, once you pass immigration, in the international departures terminal, the ATMs will only dispense foreign currency. They don't dispense baht since they don't want you taking too much baht out of Thailand.

@Nathan **************

that's completely wrong as many have posted hundreds of times. It must be cash only. Not bank statements, credit cards, etc. People who try that keep reporting immigration rejects anything other than cash but the cash can be any major currency equivalent to baht.

Thank you for moving my post as you felt was appropriate. I appreciate any insight.
