Howard Waudby asked in another topic: 

Tod Daniels can I just ask a quick question please. I am in the UK, just got my 1st Non-Imm O-A Visa last Friday from London Embassy. I’m planning to return to Thailand in about 1 month. I understand there isn’t any official info yet on Health Insurance but if I enter Thailand after 1st July were do I need to show I have medical insurance?

Thank you🙏

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user has obtained a Non-Imm O-A Visa in the UK and is inquiring about the health insurance requirements upon entering Thailand after July 1st. Responses indicate that since the visa was obtained before the enforcement of any new rules regarding insurance, the user is likely exempt from needing to show proof of medical insurance when entering Thailand.

Glad you got your O-A, now when you DO stamp back into thailand before you walk away from passport control check your stamp and make sure they stamped you in for a whole year :)

there is nothing you need to do. You got your visa BEFORE any rules started so if they do start you're fine without it.
