- Hotel booking is separate, can even use award bookings, but will need a 2000 thb deposit for them to issue a document for the ThaiPass (refundable after the stay, but I am sure just a modest breakfast for 2 will cost that much
)
May be they lower the price of pcr tests too - one can dream.
I just got my TP application rejection message, reason been PCR not include in the hotel booking. (Submitted yesterday and got the answer today)
As per the advice from the hotel, I booked the PCR online through PSAS and just attached the Booking.com confirmation page on the application.
On one hand they said welcome, on the other hand the system is unwelcoming . .
