What is Thailand Pass?
The Thailand Pass system is a free-of-charge web-based system designed to make the documentation process of travelers entering Thailand more efficient and faster. The Thai Pass QR code is required for all travelers entering Thailand.
The application will be approved by the central authorities in Thailand and not the Royal Thai Embassy or Consulate. Therefore, please allow sufficient time for approval after registering for the Thailand Pass.
The goal of the system is to help support the country’s “Ease of Travel” system after it reopens and to expedite filling out information and uploading travel documents.
Required Documents for Travel to Thailand
Please have the following documents ready.
- Passport
- Visa (if required)
- Buy Thailand Travel Insurance
- Flight Itinerary
- Hotel Booking Confirmation or Thailand Address
Incorrect documents will delay the entry screening to Thailand.

Who Can Apply for the Thailand Pass
Thai Pass is required for all travelers entering Thailand, whether they be Thai nationals or foreigners.
From May 1, 2022, Thai Pass application and approval requirements will depend on a traveler’s vaccination status.
- Fully Vaccinated travelers will be able to enter Thailand under the No Quarantine program. A vaccinated traveler does not need to book 1 night’s accommodation in an approved SHA+ hotel or complete an RT-PCR test on arrival.Fully vaccinated foreigners will need to provide proof of COVID insurance and their vaccination certificate when applying for Thailand Pass. Thai Nationals only need to provide their vaccination certificate as insurance is not required. Unvaccinated children under 18 years old may travel with vaccinated parents without quarantine. The parents must include the children’s personal information in the application.
- Unvaccinated travelers will have 2 options for entering Thailand:
- Unvaccinated travelers will be able to enter Thailand under the existing 5-day Alternate Quarantine program; OR
- Unvaccinated travelers will be able to enter the No Quarantine program by completing an RT-PCR test and uploading the result into their Thai Pass application. The test cannot be older than 72 hours before their departure date.
What are the Requirements for the Thailand Pass
To support “Ease of Travel’, entry requirements have been eased from May 1, 2022. You can now apply with fewer documents and obtain a QR entry code faster.
The document requirements are listed below.
Vaccinated travelers (No Quarantine)
- Your passport profile page
- A certificate of full (2 doses) vaccination or vaccine card
- A medical insurance policy with at least USD$ 10,000 minimum coverage
Unvaccinated travelers (No Quarantine)
- Your passport profile page
- An RT-PCR test result no more than 72 hours before your departure date
- A medical insurance policy with at least USD$ 10,000 minimum coverage
Unvaccinated travelers doing Alternate Quarantine program
- Your passport profile page
- Confirmed booking of SHA+ hotel 5-day Alternate Quarantine package
- A pre-booked RT-PCR test on arrival (if not included in your package)
- A medical insurance policy with at least USD$ 10,000 minimum coverage
Passport

Proof of Vaccination
For vaccinated travelers entering under the No Quarantine program, you must prepare your vaccination certificate or card. The file must be in JPG, JPEG, or PNG.
For unvaccinated travelers who would like to enter Thailand under the No Quarantine program, instead of submitting a vaccination certificate or card, you must submit a negative result of the RT PCR COVID-19 test issued within 72 hours before traveling to Thailand.
Flight Details
The next step of the process is to book your flight to Thailand. Although it is not required to submit a proof of flight booking, the Thai Pass system will require the following information of your flight:
- Country of Departure
- Date of Arrival in Thailand
- Flight Number
- Estimated Exit Date from Thailand
Hotel Booking or Address in Thailand
The Thailand Pass system does not require travelers to provide a hotel booking as well. However, you will be required to provide an address in Thailand. If you will be staying in private accommodation you may provide the address.
For travelers staying in a hotel, we highly recommend using Agoda.com when booking your hotel:
- Bangkok Hotels: https://www.agoda.com/search?cid=1897011&city=9395
- Phuket Hotels: https://www.agoda.com/search?cid=1897011&city=16056

How to Apply for Thailand Pass
The Thailand Pass System is a QR code generating system. To obtain a QR entry code or Thai Pass ID, travelers will have to:
- Register at the official web portal
- Input personal details
- Upload the required documents per their vaccination status
- Receive a confirmation email after registration (within seconds after registration)
- Wait for the approval (normally within 1-3 days)
And if approved, you will receive an email with your QR Entry Code or ID, which you will use upon entering Thailand.
1. Apply for Thailand Pass by Yourself
You may apply for the Thailand Pass directly on the MFA website: https://tp.consular.go.th/
If you have already applied by yourself and you need to check the status, please go to: https://tp.consular.go.th/en/check-status
If you already applied and you still did not get the QR code or you were rejected, please email: [email protected]
2. Thailand Pass Application Service by Siam Legal
Application for the Thailand Pass is free-of-charge and you do not need any assistance to apply for it. However, there may be instances where some individuals may voluntarily choose a paid service provider such as a law firm to provide consultation, assist them to prepare their documents, and submit them on their behalf.
Individuals may encounter problems with their documents that are not being uploaded properly or are deemed unacceptable to the Thai embassy or consulate. This may cause delays or rejection of your application, so it may be helpful to retain a service provider to assist you with the application. These paid Thailand Pass services offered by Siam Legal are listed below.
Step-by-Step Guide for Thailand Pass Application
Thailand has recently reopened the country to travelers, both Thais and foreigners whether vaccinated or unvaccinated. In this newsletter, you will learn about the Step-by-Step Process of Applying for a Thailand Pass.
Step 1: Visit the official website
You may go to the official website: https://tp.consular.go.th/
Once there, you may choose the option of Air Travel or Land Travel.
After that, you will be directed to a page where you can begin your registration:
When you begin the registration, you will be directed to the entry program which is No Quarantine:
No Quarantine program for fully vaccinated travelers entering any international airport or selected land borders in Thailand or unvaccinated who have RT PCR test results issued within 72 hours before departure to Thailand. Unvaccinated children below 18 years old must be added to their parent’s or guardian’s application.
Step 2: Details of your Arrival
In this part, you will provide the purpose of travel to Thailand whether for tourism or if you are a returning resident.
You will also provide your country of departure, airport of arrival, flight number, date of arrival.
Step 3. Provide your Personal Information
In this part, you will provide your full name as stated in your passport or travel document, nationality, passport number, date of birth, contact number, and email address. Please make sure that you check the correct spelling of your personal information before you proceed to the next step. Also in this part, children under the age of 18 years will be added to the parent or guardian.
Step 4. Upload Proof of Vaccination or RT PCR Test
In this part, you will provide your vaccination information. You will provide the name or brand of your latest vaccination. You will be able to upload a JPG or PNG file of your proof of vaccination.
For faster processing of your Thailand Pass, it is recommended to also upload the QR code of your vaccination document if it is available.
Note: If you are you are not fully vaccinated, you may upload a copy of your RT PCR or professional ATK test result in lieu of a vaccination certificate issued within 72 hours before departure.
Step 5: Provide Your Hotel Details or Address in Thailand
In this part, you will be required to provide the details of your address in Thailand or your hotel reservation.
If you are staying in a hotel, you can also validate your reservation if you booked through Agoda.com:
Step 6: Submit your Travel Insurance
In this part, you will provide the COVID 19 Insurance. You must upload the certificate of insurance. Based on experience, it is recommended to use AXA Thailand Insurance as it is the best insurance provider and they will issue a one-page document written specifically for your Thai Pass application.
Step 7: Review the Summary of your Thailand Pass Application
This is the last part of the application process. You will have a summary of your application. Please check all information that you have provided and if everything is correct, you may submit the application.
You will then receive your 6-digit access code which will appear on your screen and it will also be sent to your registered email.
How long does it take to Process the Thailand Pass
The processing time for the application is up to 2 hours depending on the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Department of Disease Control office. There are instances when the registration will take a couple of minutes to a couple of hours. It is recommended to apply for the Thailand pass at least 2 days before your intended departure.
How to Check the Status of Your Application
To check the status of your Thailand Pass application, you may go to: https://tp.consular.go.th/en/check-status
If the status states ‘Reviewing’, it means you need to wait a day or two for the result.
If the status states ‘Approved’, you can download the file or save it on your mobile phone.
Once you have been approved, you can download your Thai Pass QR code or you will also receive it through email. For vaccinated travelers and their dependents, they may use the Thai Pass QR code within 3 days after the estimated arrival date in case of flight delays.
Take note that Thailand Pass is not a visa and it is not a permit to stay in Thailand. It is just a permit to enter Thailand during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Sample Thai Pass QR Code
Recommended Thailand Pass Insurance
Based on experience, the common problem for the applications being rejected and travelers being denied boarding their flight is that some insurance policies are not properly worded.
Your COVID 19 insurance must expressly state that it covers up to $10,000 USD medical expenses, including COVID 19 related incidents, and it must cover your whole stay in Thailand.
The Thai Pass system only accepts one attachment therefore it is important to have a one-page Certificate of Insurance with all the required information. To purchase the most reliable insurance that has never had a problem with the Thai Embassy or airline, please click the link below:

Top 20 Questions on Thailand Pass
Do we still need RT-PCR on arrival after April 1?
No. RT-PCR will no longer be required for vaccinated travelers when entering Thailand.
Unvaccinated travelers who do not want to do a mandatory 5-day quarantine will need to complete a pre-departure RT-PCR no less than 72 hours before their arrival date and will need to upload the result into their Thailand Pass application.
Is there a list of SHA+ hotels in Bangkok?
You can find a list of approved SHA+/AQ and the list of normal hotels in Bangkok at Agoda.com
When should I begin the Thai Pass process? Will the pass expire?
You should begin applying for your Thailand Pass a minimum of 5 working days before your flight date. Yes, it will expire after 7 days from the date of arrival which is stated in the Thailand Pass.
What is the minimum age children need to do an RT- PCR test?
Starting April 1, 2022 travelers both adults and children are no longer required to undergo a mandatory pre-departure RT-PCR test before traveling to Thailand.
Do I need to upload proof of purchase for an ATK kit as part of my Thai Pass application?
No. ATK tests are self-administered and can be bought from a pharmacy or 7-11stores in Thailand. Currently, the official website advises you have to upload proof of purchase of an ATK test kit, but this is not required.
Am I allowed to leave the hotel room while waiting for my RT-PCR negative result?
If you arrive under the Alternate Quarantine scheme, you are required to stay in your room for the full 5 days. You cannot leave the room until you receive a negative RT-PCR test result on day 5.
How long will I need to quarantine if I test positive for Covid while in Thailand?
You will be required to quarantine for up to 10 days or until your RT-PCR test shows a negative result. A second test will be conducted on day 5. If you have a history of COVID 19 infection, the hotel and hospital will determine if you will not be required to isolate or quarantine.
Can I use an old Thai Pass QR if it has passed the original date of approval?
You can use an old Thai Pass QR if your flight changes by up to 7 days before or after the original arrival date. If your changes are over 7 days, then you need to apply for a new Thailand Pass.
If I am a returning expat, how long should I get insurance?
There is no hard rule for how long you need the insurance. Returning expats are being accepted with policy coverage of 30 days.
Why do I have to use a SHA+/AQ hotel?
SHA+/AQ hotels are approved by the Thai Government as Covid safe with 70-100% of staff vaccinated. These hotels have regulated testing processes in place and are partnered with a hospital or medical facility in the case you test positive for Covid on arrival. Booking an AQ or SHA+ hotel is required for travelers under the Quarantine program.
What cities in Thailand do I get an RT-PCR test at the hotel?
RT-PCR tests are conducted at the SHA+ hotel in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Pattaya, and Hua Hin or partner hospitals for travelers under the Quarantine program.
What cities do I get an RT-PCR test at the Airport?
Visitors landing in Phuket, Krabi, or Koh Samui are tested at the airport and then transported to their hotel. The test is no longer required for travelers under the No Quarantine program.
How much is an RT-PCR test if I have to book it myself?
An RT-PCR will cost from 1,500 to 2,500 Thai baht if you have to book it yourself.
Can I receive assistance with preparing documents for my Thailand Pass?
Yes. Companies like Siam Legal International provide Thailand Pass services that check and confirm all documents are in order.
Can I land in Bangkok and fly straight to Krabi?
Yes. If you are vaccinated, under the new No Quarantine program, you are free to travel anywhere when you leave the airport.
Can I book a flight to Chiang Mai if I land in Bangkok?
Yes. From May 1, Test & Go is no longer required for vaccinated travelers so you can book domestic transit flights anywhere in Thailand immediately.
Do I have to stay at SHA+/AQ hotels for my entire stay in Thailand?
No. SHA+/AQ hotels are only required for travelers entering Thailand under the No Quarantine program. As long as you have a Thailand Pass, vaccination and insurance, you are free to travel anywhere in Thailand and book any accommodation.

Adding the PCR Test with other required documents and sending for approval that Saturday. Will our Thailand pass be approved during Saturday, Sunday and Monday before our flight? If not we will miss our flight.

Hello, I would appreciate some help.
I’m assuming If you plan to stay in Thailand for 30 days (with AXA insurance), and then decide to stay for a further 30 days; then I would need to apply for 30 days more insurance coverage with AXA whilst in Thailand?
Dear James,
In theory, yes. But in reality, once you are already inside Thailand, no one will check if your have COVID insurance or not. But for your peace of mind, you can get an extension of your insurance validity.
Thank you.
We have submitted a Thai Pass application that shows the access code, passport and email – all confirmed correct.
When we go to check the status the Thai Pass system denies access.
What can we do to gain access to our Thai Pass application.
Do we need to submit a new application request?
Dear Rodney,
This is a common technical glitch. You do not need to worry. You will receive the Thailand Pass by email. There is no need to resubmit.
Thank you.

Hi, I am traveling to Thailand on May 31, 2022. after the application, I received an email confirming that the Thailand Pass system has received my registration. However, when I go and check the status after 2 hours from the application at https://tp.consular.go.th/en/check-status, it says “Access Denied”. Does this appear any issue with my application and approval? I used the same email address for my application, this email is also used to apply for my colleague a few days ago. Using the same email to apply for a different Thai Pass creates this issue? please let me know what I should do to get my Thai Pass in time for my meeting in Thailand? Thank you very much
Hi Tran,
If your application has been denied with specific reason or your flight has been delayed and you need to revise the date of arrival, you can edit the information with the access code provided after your first submission. For uploading documents, it should be JPEG or PNG.
Thank you.

I’m going to be transferring in Bangkok on my way to Bali. So Bangkok (Suvarnabhumi Airport) is only a transit for me (3 hours and 45 minutes). Also on my way back I’ll be transitting in Bangkok (Suvarnabhumi Airport) but for 5 hours and 15 minutes.
1) Do I need a Transit Visa? As far as I’ve read I don’t need one, as my onward flight is within 12 hours of arriving in Bangkok. But I’m still unsure, because I’ve also read that I need an electronic Thailand visa for transit, as I’m traveling with Thai Airways.
2) Do I need to apply for the Thailand Pass? I’m not staying in Thailand, other than the transit time. I tried applying for the Thailand Pass, but at one point I have to fill out an address in Thailand, which I don’t have since I’m not staying in Thailand. So if I do have to apply for the Thailand Pass, which address am I supposed to use?
Hi Ida,
If layover and if you will not check in at immigration , it’s No, Just obtain travel insurance with covid medical coverage minimum of USD 10,000.
Thank you
I have 7 hours transit in the airport do i need PRC test or insurance or pass?
Hi Zayd,
You need to obtain covid insurance.
Thank you
My 19yo daughter and her boyfriend booked for Thailand June 8 (for 30 days) they are not vaccinated.
Do they need to have a negative pcr test before applying for the Thailand pass? Because the test cannot be older than 72h before departure, will the Thailand pass be on time? Or can they implement the negative pcr test result after application of the pass?
All the other requirements as hotel, insurance etc are already arranged.
Hi Angel,
It’s either they have 72 hours negative RT PCR valid upon arrival or stay in ASQ hotel for 5 days.
Thank you
Hi, If I plan to Arrive in Thai on 21st May and Depart on 1st June.

2. What if I decided to depart before 1st June, what must I do…
Thanks
Hi Tan,
Your plan of extension will not matter, Thailand Pass is an entry requirements.
Thank you
So if I am fully vaccinated (4 doses), there’s no PCR on arrival I need to worry about and I can book any hotels (even not SHA +), correct? All I need just apply for the Thailand Pass and Heath Insurance, which I already bought. Thanks.
Hi Joe,
no worries, you can apply for Thailand Pass as usual. You also can book any hotel.
Hey there,
Do you need the Thai pass if you are only transitting through Thailand?
Thanks!
Hi Hannah,

Thank you

Hi,
Do I need a Thailand Pass if I have an approved 60 day visa?
Regards,
Andrew
Hi Andrew,
Yes, visa is different in Thailand Pass.
Thank you
It is confusing the approval time for Thai pass also being within 3 days of departure and negative PCR test within same time frame.
So if my flight leaves thailand at 9 20 PM May 28th to vietnam
Then I need to take a PCR test and apply thai pass on the same day
May 26th 920 AM correct ?
Hi Terry,
The Thailand Pass process takes 24 to 48 hours only, most of the time earlier than that.
Thank you
Is it advisable to apply for Thailand Pass two weeks prior to your arrival date? I just want to make sure I got approved before booking other flights and hotels since Thailand isn’t the only country I will be visiting in the middle of next month.
Also, I’m not too sure how this will work out as I will arrive at the hotel like 1am of June 14 and plan to stay until morning of June 15 then head to Vietnam. So, assuming if I can’t get the PCR test until the morning of June 14, will it give me enough time to get the result before leaving Thailand and head to Vietnam on June 15 noon? I already purchased Health Insurance for the whole trip.
Thanks.
Dear Joe,
Good day.
Yes, if you are fully vaccinated you can apply for No Quarantine Thailand Pass even 1 month before traveling. The processing time is 2 days. If you are unvaccinated, you can only apply for No Quarantine Thailand Pass, within 72 hours before your departure since you need to wait for your RT PCR test result issued within 72 hours before departure also.

For ref he has also had covid some 6 months ago and fully recovered.
Thanks

But we recommend preparing his covid related documents in case of any emergency.

Hi. Can i book ticket delhi to Phuket and return ticket bangkok to delhi.
Hi Rajdeep,
You sure can.
Hello Sir,
I have a question regarding to the following. Me and my family are going to bangkok from 25 july to 5 august. In the meantime we are going to phuket from bangkok airport, from 30 july to 3 august. Do we need two thailand passes per person (for 25 july and 3 august, since this is after 7 days of 25 july) and another Sandboxx programm??? (my sisters are not vaccinated, but they will do an PCR test. Do they need to do another programm in Phuket??) Can you please help me with this.
Hi Rajeev,
You only need a Thailand Pass on your arrival day. After getting inside Thailand, you can travel anywhere.
Your unvaccinated sisters can apply for the AQ program and quarantine for 5 nights or take a pre-departure RT-PCR test and skip the quarantine time.
I am travelling to Phuket under my maiden surname on my passport but my vaccination certificate is under my married surname. Will this be a problem when applying for the pass? Thank you.
Dear Carmed,
It might be a problem since it’s not the same with you surname in your passport. However, some of the staff will consider it and your Thailand Pass will get approved some are not but still you can try. I advice you to contact the hospital or clinic and change it with the same surname you have in your passport just to make it sure.
Thank you.
