STV Visa Visa Extension Thailand Immigration Covid-19 Insurance Expat Advice Insurance Providers in Thailand

Feb 25, 2022

Aspi ***********

ORIGINAL POSTER

I am in Thailand presently and I have a STV Visa; but, I am unable to extend it by 90 days.  The Government of Thailand and the Immigration has made a new rule which states that with STV Visa one has to purchase the Covid 19 related Insurance.  However, all the Insurance companies now only give Insurance for 30 days only and not for 90 days! The insurance companies are willing to give 1 year insurance which costs from 35 to 80 thousand Baht.  Which I find too expensive to purchase for 90 days stay in Thailand.  Please advice what I should do?  If I purchase 30 day insurance I have to leave Thailand in 30 days and cannot extend my Visa further.
