OxKing033 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Hi there, Not sure if anyone has experience with this. American here planning to do the Phuket Sandbox in mid july. I just applied for the TR visa on the e-visa system. I uploaded the necessary documents(flight, medical insurance, booking after 14 days) etc. Figured to book the SHA+ hotel once the Sandbox is officially confirmed in the Royal Gazette. Am about to send the physical documents and passport to the Washington DC Thai embassy BUT I notice one required document that catches me off guard: "2.5 A confirmed reservation of 15 nights of Alternative State Quarantine (ASQ) " But then i look at another U.S. Thai Embassy and they don't seem to require that reservation. Wasn't the ASQ reservation just for the Certificate of Entry and not for applying for the TR? Edited June 15, 2021 by OxKing033 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 You should be able to submit the tourist visa application to the embassy without the SHA or ASQ reserved. It is really only needed for the certificate of entry and the sandbox is not on the website for them yet since as far as I know it still has not been formally approved yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you good sir, was confused since the eVisa system didn't mention about it(while the after 14 day accomodation, flight itinerary were required).

Do they still require a fit to fly form to enter? Can you link me to the website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could just show where you are staying after the 14 day quarantine. If staying with your wife have her write up a short note in Thai that you will be staying with her.

Look here on the certificate of entry website and you will see it is not mentioned. https://coethailand.mfa.go.th/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
