Fit to fly and PCR Test Leaving Thailand
Hello Guys,,,,
It doesn't seem 5 minutes ago we arrived in Thailand but soon it will be time for me to go back to work. Does anyone know where we can get a PCR test and fit to fly in Hua Hin or nearby? I know we can do in Bangkok but don't want to spend time in a hotel again, enough of that coming in... . GN

I got both at Bangkok Hospital. For the ftf I brought my own example from my company and they made out one based on that one. This was in June last year, so I'm pretty sure they now should have their own standard ftf. If not you can find dozens available examples on the web.

Re: Fit to fly and PCR Test Leaving Thailand
I am in a similar position but will be going to Singapore and the PCR RT test has to be done 36 hours before the flight and fit to fly within 24 hours of the flight. How long does it take for the PCR RT result to come back?
I know that I could use Dr Donna but also don’t fancy the drive to Bangkok just for the test.

Did mine at San Paulo
They won't just give you the certificate after the test, but insist on a full examination by the doctor.
If you have 2 hours to spare the day before you travel fine.
If not the Bangkok hospital is the better choice.

Isn't fit to fly being scrapped on 1st April? Or is that too late for you.

Re: Fit to fly and PCR Test Leaving Thailand
Not entirely sure, flying back Saudi so need to confirm.
Re: Fit to fly and PCR Test Leaving Thailand
For some the fit to fly is a requirement of other authorities outside of Thailand, particularly for offshore workers and seafarers in certain countries.
Re: Fit to fly and PCR Test Leaving Thailand
Going to be using San Paolo most likely. Will give them a try mid April for the first test and later for the test and fit to fly as the latter is required within 24 hours of the flight on 30th as long as it can be timed and dated after ten in the morning on 29th. If not then it will have to be the more expensive Bangkok hospital version.
