Can anyone ell me what the policy in Thailand is regarding vaccinations? My fiancee went to Bumrungrad Hospital today for her physical and the physician said 2 vaccinations were required at the embassy (rubella/mumps and pertussis). She had her first round today and the physician claims she has to return for 2 additional shots for one vaccine and 1 additional shot for the other. Is this necessary before she goes to the US where she can get them for free under my medical coverage? I paid 1,618 baht for the two vaccines today.

Thanks.

There are NO required vaccinations for a K-1 visa, however BKK is one of those consulates who ignore this.

Typically, the series only needs to have been started... in light of how they handle #1) I do not know how BKK will handle this

Your just required to start the series. You are talking less then 50 bucks, probably better to just get them done there, your medical plan may do them for free, but you most likely still have to pay a co-pay for the visit. Also lately BKK has been a PIA.
