Hallo

I live in Germany,

I'm German and 61 years old.

I have a work contract in Germany and because of that I am in statutory health insurance. I have the visa non-imm OA Longstay multiple.

Thailand pretends to be a health insurance with 3,000,000 coverage from a Thai insurance company.

I have travel abroad health insurance all the years with repatriation to Germany.

I don't know now if travel insurance will be accepted for the visa.

Reason for my question, the last border crossing the officials wanted to see my insurance policy and I had problems there.

Who can help me clear this question here?

-------------

Hallo

Ich habe meinen Wohnsitz in Deutschland,

bin Deutscher und 61 Jahre alt.

Habe einen Arbeitsvertrag in Deutschland und bin dadurch in der gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung. Ich bin im Besitz des Visums non-imm OA Longstay multiple.

Thailand gibt vor, eine Krankenversicherung mit 3.000.000 Deckungssumme einer thailändischen Versicherung.

Ich habe die ganzen Jahre eine Auslandsreisekrankenversicherung mit Rückführung nach Deutschland.

Ich weiß jetzt nicht, ob eine Reisekrankenversicherung für das Visum anerkannt wird.

Grund für meine Frage, beim letzten Grenzübertritt wollten die Beamten meine Versicherungspolice sehen und ich hatte Probleme dort.

Wer kann mir hier helfen, die Frage zu klären?

Is it a mistake to use my Thai bank account to show proof of funds, instead of one from my home country? I’m aware it could highlight that I’ve essentially been living in Thailand for the past six months (on visa exemptions), and that I’ve had a Thai account for four years now (I’ve been on various visas). My passport stamps tell the same story, however.

Medical soft power? I want to head to Thailand for medical reasons, but since you have to apply from your home country (Canada) I was curious what path to take.

I haven't been in Thailand but heard it's 2nd best for treatments for my condition so I am interested in applying for DTV from Canada asap. However, I have nothing scheduled yet and I would probably have to get consultation first, so being the treatment is in Bumrungrad International Hospital can I apply for DTV using a consult appointment or does it have to be a full blown 6 month treatment plan.

Hi everyone,

I applied for my DTV visa on April 1st via the official website in Hanoi, Vietnam, and my visa is still pending approval. My flight back is scheduled for Wednesday at the end of the day, and I’m getting worried about the timing because Monday its holidays in both countries 😢

Has anyone experienced a similar situation? Should I contact the embassy immediately to get an update, or is it normal to wait a little longer? I’d really appreciate any advice or recommendations you might have.

Thank you very much!

Hello!

My DTV was approved in Manila and I re-entered Thailand with no issues at all or questioning yesterday, 180 days stamped.

At my 90 day report do I need to present my TM 30? Is there any guidance on what you will need to bring on the 90 day report, and whether you'll be required to present all of your documentation again?

I live in a house, not a condo so I have to manage renewing my own TM30 at immigration myself.

Thank you very much ☺️

Insurance related question so hope falls under ‘More’ category!

Any advice on best travel insurance company to use for travelling from Thailand to USA? Most UK/European providers need you to depart and return from/to your ‘home’ country.

I just got my email from The Thai embassy in Los Angeles and I have been approved for my Non-O marriage visa! I want to thank everyone on this page who helped me with a huge shout out to Brandon Thurkettle! Every single thing he said here has proven to be totally accurate. He was the one who first told me the Non-O marriage would best suit me. So it’s a huge relief to have that out of the way, now we are on the clock. We will be in Thailand by the end of May at the latest and then it’s time to stress out over building our new house! 😎🤪😎🙏🙏🙏🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭. Thanks again everyone and maybe we will bump into you at The Monkey Bar in Korat. Brandon I will definitely buy you some drinks!
