Transit Passengers what do they need
Transit Passengers what do they need
I have two friends both soon to fly from PP via Bangkok and on to Europe I have been searching the web for them, not computer users, trying to find out what they need to simply transit the airport both are there for around two hours fully vaccinated and with certificates.
Any ideas what if anything they actually need? (other than passports of course)
cheers

Re: Transit Passengers what do they need

Transit/transfer travellers are not required to apply for Thailand Pass QR code but are required to have the following documents:
Passport

(For non-Thai travellers only) Travel health insurance covering health care and treatment expenses for COVID-19 disease, or any other guarantee throughout their stay in the Kingdom, with a coverage of no less than 10,000 USD

No need to buy insurance when the travellers already have a valid medical insurance.
I transited at Bangkok twice over the last four weeks and at Bangkok airport there are no checks other than a boarding pass check. All checks are done at check in so I would contact the airline to make sure what they consider enough proof for vaccination and insurance.

Re: Transit Passengers what do they need
Current transit requirements, no insurance and you'll be denied check-in, witnessed dozens of people being denied check-in for this reason the last 3 times whilst checking in at Phnom Penh.
Also, pay close attention to point no.10

You'd think that a country that has been welcoming international visitors for decades could manage to publish this in passable English.

The word 'only' seems a contradiction from a self insured person.
