Thailand Pass workaround for API error
NOTE: The following article was published in November 2021 and the Thailand Pass website has since been updated.
For all those struggling to get past the dreaded Error from API server message when registering for the Thailand Pass, we’ve got a ‘fix’ for you – just follow these steps:
1. Use Google Chrome
You need to be using Google Chrome for this workaround to actually work, and we advise using a laptop/desktop.
2. Download the Allow CORS Chrome Extension
Follow this link and it will take you to the download
3. Make sure it’s toggled on and enabled
Check HERE to confirm.
Add the extension to the bookmarked options and click it, turn it on, so it shows in colour and not grey.
4. Restart your Chrome Browser
5. Log on to the Thailand Pass website and complete your submission once again
Click HERE to access Thailand Pass.
Nb. if you have any issues about passport ID already being used, just add a space to the end when entering, eg. “123123123 ”
6. Disable and delete!
Nothing else good will come from keeping this Chrome Extention on your device, so our advice is to disable it and even delete it. It served its purpose, now time to go!
