Do I need travel insurance before applying for a Thai visa?
Do I need to have travel insurance ready + in place prior to applying for a visa ?
Answer summary
Whether you need travel insurance prior to applying for a Thai visa depends on the specific visa you are applying for. Generally, most visas such as the 60-day tourist visa or Non-O visa do not require insurance. However, the Non-OA visa does require insurance from a limited group of providers. It's important to clarify which visa you are applying for to determine if insurance is necessary.

Arron Doherty Non immigrant O or OA? One requires insurance from a limited group of insurers. And visa runs alongside insurance validity. Non-O doesn't require insurance.
