problem is I can't get the certificate issued until Sunday as that will be 10 days. My flight is booked for Thursday so I thought putting it back to the Friday after was safest bet so then 14 days since infection. Its a pain because had hotel's booked for a road trip Chaing mai to Koh Chang so a lot of reorganising. I will try and contact the thai embassy in London 1st thing and ask their advice also.

I was contemplating getting a PCR on weds and flying Thursday if negative as its been 10 days but I don't think it's worth the risk of a positive result on friday but means I've got to put back my flight back a week to get the 14 days recovery. (And yes it helps thank you 👍)

Stuart, was your cert of recovery 10 days old or 14? I am in this predicament now. Tested positive 8th. Can get the cert from 17th and be 10 days but i've read comments about 14 days.?

I used Bangkok Bank in Cha Am and only needed my passport verified by embassy for proof of where I was staying (was only in Cha Am) 2 nights. Embassy charged me 500 baht but account opened no problem.
