In addition to the current vaccination programme for foreigners already announced, local organisations and entities have also taken the lead to inoculate expatriates under their purview once vaccines become available.
This weekend, the Thai Board of Trade was able to secure a limited number of vaccines which will be provided for members of foreign chambers of commerce and private organisations.
A small portion of these vaccines became available on Friday afternoon as some foreign chambers could not confirm the final lists of those to be vaccinated. As a result, the MFA started to reach out to foreign missions to enquire whether they had any priority cases who should be vaccinated, but given the time constraint, only some could be reached and accommodated.
Looking ahead, to assist foreign missions in facilitating vaccination for their nationals in Thailand and to ensure that no one is left out, the MFA, in cooperation with Ministry of Public Health, will open by the end of this month an online platform for the registration of expatriates wishing to be vaccinated, the details of which will be announced in due course.
