The digital travel declaration accessible on the QR code requires travelers to supply personal information, such as their full name, national identification number, mobile phone number, gender, and nationality.

After submission, travelers need to show this form to officials at screening checkpoints. Information provided will only be used for the purposes of disease investigation.

The checkpoints can be found on Vibhavadi Rangsit Road in front of Don Muang Railway Station, on Suwinthawong road under Mahanakhon intersection overpass, on Bang na-Trat road in front of Bangchak petrol station at kilometer 4.5, on Borommaratchachonnani under Phutthamonthon Sai 3 intersection overpass, on Phetkasem road Soi 70 in front of Nong Khaem District Office, and on Rama II road in front of PTT petrol station in Bang Khun Thian district.
