@Michael *******

thanks Michael. When you book any of these hotels, do you have to request the add-ons (i.e. PCR tests, etc) or is it automatic and part of the price?

ok, cool. 60 days? You must have applied for the TR visa, not the STV.

yeah I know it’s separate, I was going to use an agency for the whole thing, not just STV. So… Thai Pass, quarantine accomm, PCR test bookings, visa, etc. I’ve heard there is restrictions within Thailand so I’m hoping my medical exemption comes through and I can show that. Or maybe things would have eased up by the time I get there.

Thanks for that

. That gives me a lot more confidence. Being an unvaccinated traveller, things are even more complicated then they already are, so I thought an agent could help with this. I appreciate your advice. Thanks.

hi Michael. I can’t find it (new to using FB groups). When I go to Topics, it comes up as different hashtags. I select #STV then only 1 post about STV comes up.
