Good luck. I'm fairly sure they must have a number for you but didn't give to you as you weren't checking your appointment date online and so didn't need it. But then again, TIT. 🙏🏽

I've read on several sources that the Government have done a U-turn on the Green Card requirement. It seems the fact the need for vaccination of customers didn't get written into the Royal Gazette means it is unlikely it will be enforced.

Hopefully, some sort of retraction will be made at today's Brief.

Any luck with dialling 1422?

You don't say. UK or Thailand?

In any event how will we inform NHS UK database that we have been jabbed in Thailand? Hopefully they'll accept these green cards. And boost us if necessary
Sorry, remiss of me. I got Astra Zeneca jabs in July in England, and then travelled back to Hua Hin using the Phuket Sandbox scheme.
You raise a good point TheColonel. It's the same problem in reverse. Maybe you have to go to your UK GP or contact NHS direct?

You can print out a certificate of your vaccination from the nhs website

To clarify, what I was questioning was how do your NHS UK records get updated if you've been jabbed in Thailand?

Hopefully they'll accept these Thai 'green cards' once we know how to get them

At the moment the UK doesn’t recognise vaccines outside the UK/EU/USA so unless and until they do so, I doubt that the NHS will accept your Thai vaccines - if I get a chance to check this I will do so and report back

No, sat waiting on hold for ages so I gave up. If it’s not clarified in the meantime, I’ll ask at Bang Saphan hospital when I go for my second jab in 2 weeks time

I was going to go to HHH to try again tomorrow, but now its not been entered into the Royal Gazette I won't bother unless today's brief says otherwise.

I'm curious as to how we get one regardless

But not going to HHH while they are mad busy jabbing people, priorities and all that

I think, as BB has said, the subject can be dropped for now. It's not in the Royal Gazette and not mentioned in the latest briefing or the latest from TAT on relaxing restrictions.

Probably on the back burner and destined to stay there.

Having received both Sinovac and a shot of Astra at Huahin hospital I am now in possession of a quite large piece of bendy green paper/ card. On this there are my hand scribbled details -Passport etc etc - and two stickers confirming my vaccinations.
Is this the frequently mentioned green card ? Is there some other more professional cétificate available and if so how to get it ?
I originally " signed up" at Blueport and I do have thirteen numbers

No, I have the same. I have dug out my John Bull Printing Kit, scanned and shrunk mine into credit card size, and have laminated it. The original is stored safely at home, and I have the mini version in my wallet if asked.

If really required, hopefully they will issue instructions on how to obtain a proper one.

Had my second vaccine yesterday at Hua Hin Hospital. All run like clockwork. In and out in about 45 minutes including the post- shot waiting time.
Then went down to the Reception on ground floor. Into the main entrance and the First desk on the right. They wanted copy of the vaccine record (green paper for me with the details of the shots) plus copy of passport. Pay 50 Baht and return to the lady at the first desk. She took the copies and phone number. They will call when the booklet is received with record of vaccinations, about 1 week. She was very helpful and several other foreigners were making same application.
Will post when I get the booklet. Apparently very similar to the WHO Yellow Vaccination book
