WALK IN VACCINE CENTRE - CENTRAL FESTIVAL
There’s a temporary vaccine centre at Central Festival Samui, for anyone who hasn’t had their 1st or 2nd vaccines. A 3rd booster is also available for people who’ve had 2 doses of Sinovac.
- Walk in. No appointment needed.
- Monday to Friday, 9:30am – 3pm.
- Beach Eats Zone, Level 1, Central Festival Samui.
- Bring your ID card and/or passport. Also bring documents confirming that you are staying in Samui.
DIGITAL VACCINE CERTIFICATE / MOR PHROM APP
Non-Thai residents that have received their first vaccine can register for the Mor Phrom หมอพร้อม application and use the digital vaccine certificate as proof of their vaccine.
Note:
1. Open the App Store on your phone, and search for หมอพร้อม
2. I wasn’t able to search for it using the English App name, but you could also try Mor Phrom.
3. If it doesn’t work with your mobile number, try using the number of the person who helped you make the appointment for the first vaccine (eg. your husband or wife’s number).
4. Don’t worry too much about the appointment date that’s shown in the app. Advice from Koh Samui Hospital is to follow the date that’s on your appointment slip. For location, same place where you got the first vaccine. If they change the date they will post on the Facebook page of Koh Samui Hospital.

VACCINE PASSPORTS FOR INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL
You can apply for a Vaccine Passport for international travel at Koh Samui Hospital (in Nathon).
Take your original passport to the Koh Samui Hospital (3rd floor office), complete the form and pay the 50 THB fee. You will be given a receipt and a date to come back and collect the vaccination passport. Be sure to allow some time for them to prepare the Vaccine Passport (or let them know if it is urgent).
