Edit** is there a time frame after a positive test, some countries are 14 days some are after clear PCR. 

Hi, so I’m due to fly back to Thailand on the 4th, I have my Thai Pass but …. I might have covid (just waiting for results), what’s the rules for covid recovered. Do I just need a ‘Certificate of Recovery’ and does this mean I don’t do the PCR tests? 

I am aware getting a flight on the 4th is unlikely, just want to know what steps I need, I will be double vaccinated and covid recovered. Thanks 💖

Hey Christina did you end up finding out any further information about a certificate of recovery? I’m due to fly on the 11th and still testing positive. I’m due to fly with emirates who said they do not accept them so I’m just wondering if you found out any airlines which do accept a certificate of recovery?

hello, no information sorry. I’m hoping to travel around the 14th and have a negative result.

I’m with Etihad,

I’m looking to get a certificate to avoid quarantine if tested positive in Thailand. Whether or not this would exclude me from quarantine is another question.

Have given up my Thai pass as it’s invalid and canceled my flight.

So just playing the waiting game 😞

, I still cannot find anything in writing. If you go with a Covid recovery certificate. Still read positive tests. What the authorities action is . Frustrating

I’ve found this about the certificate but no information on PCR test, as if you had covid you can have positive results 90 days after 😑.

I think just get absolutely everything I can 🤷‍♀️
