Hi Jay & Tim and Mike's problems are obviously very frustrating but this is not what happened to us.

We live in the Netherlands, and are travelling to Thailand on the 11th of November. I decided to complete my Thai Pass a few days after it's installation, because I feared there might be few clinches from the outset. 

Although I was born in the UK, after Brexit I became a Dutch national and my wife is Thai. We had to convert all our PDF documents into jpeg's, but the rest of the process was straightforward enough, and after posting our information, within three minutes we had four emails from the Thai Pass Consular.

Two were to say that they had received our applications and two were to say they had been immediately approved! Well done to all those involved, and as I am 66, you don't need a computer wiz kid to work things out. Sorry Mike, but maybe Brexit has messed things up for you?

I’m just trying to work out the tenuous link between a Thai immigration system not functioning correctly and Brexit. I’ve heard Brexit blamed on all manner of things, but this one takes the Kaasstengels

Did Mike get approval pass and fly the next day or not!  I experienced every problem he voiced, and more.

[Samuiwonder]

Soidog- how did you get approval when no one else could even get the site to work. Something smells fishy here.

Today is 5/11/21.  I submitted my application for Travel Pass on 2/11/21 so I still have u til 9/11/21 to get a yay or nay. Lot of fecking noise so far but has anyone got their application approved thus far?  Yes or no? Just wondering if I should be worried or just wait. Thanks,. 

[Samuiwonder]

No answer from them for me either. 4 people. Did you use Gmail address?

 

[Pete424]

If the Thai government thought the COE system was a failure, I hate to think what they will think of Thailand Pass.

 

It is slower with just as many hoops to jump through and no feeling you are being approved any time soon.

3 ASQ visits in 14 months, went like a dream with approval in less than 36 hrs, one TP application and waiting 4 days and counting......

Posted it 1/11 and received QR code this morning

Still no answer on my 4 relatives applications. Did Mike make back or not?

This Thailand Pass Registration thread may be of help to several members that have asked questions.

Thanks to some advice on an earlier post, I just reapplied. When I put in my first application on november 1st it was for a flight on the 3rd. Needless to say that didn't happen. I rescheduled to the end of the month and I put in my application on Saturday the 6th. I did not get an access code, just that it was submitted. A response to my earlier inquiry on line here said to not use Yahoo or Hotmail. Of course I used a hotmail account. I just reapplied and got it accepted along with an access code that I can use to check on the status. Thanks to all for your valuable input.

I missed this as you didn’t use @Soidog  I never said I got approval? I know it’s several days ago but hope things have been resolved?
