Yes, you do need to fill in the digital form. From 1 May 2025, all foreign nationals entering Thailand, whether by air, land or sea must complete a digital arrival card online before arrival. Travellers can register for an arrival card within 3 days before they arrive. Source: https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/thailand/entry-requirements

Hi there. Yes, I *think* its operating again, but only on Friday, Saturday, Sundays. You need to buy tickets here https://maps.app.goo.gl/ACU26qq5UCBTAEzz9 and the tickets include a shuttle bus that takes you to the departure point which is at the cruise terminal (you can’t walk, you have to take the shuttle bus). Ticket office opens on the days of travel from 06:20 to 07:20. Shuttle bus leaves at 07:30. Ferry leaves at 08:00. Takes about 3 hours to get to Labuan. Let me know if you take it and how it goes. I’ll get this post updated this week. Sarah

Hi, you wouldn’t have any recent info on the boats from KK to Labuan (is it even operating at all?) and the schedule from Labuan to Brunei (seemingly not a daily a.m. boat)? Thanks!

In reply to Et. Hi there. No signs and no people guiding I'm afraid, but just follow the directions in the blog post (ie cross the road, turn left and follow the road around to the right till you see the bus park and then match the reg plate on the bus with the one on your ticket and you'll be good.
