Is Allianz health insurance acceptable for entry into Thailand on a visa application?

Question

I'm just about to fill out my visa application and have come to the part where I need to choose a health insurance. Have been browsing around and found Mister Prakan! https://misterprakan.com/intl/main?lg=en is that something anyone can recommend?

I found a three month insurance from Allianz for **6135 **thb, seems to cover everything and grant me access into the country (most important). But before I pay I would like to know if I'm on the right track here and if it will actually allow me in. Allianz is German, and it says in the form that a health insurance "issued by thai insurer" is required.

Ask Thailand · Answer

The user is considering Allianz health insurance for their visa application to Thailand but is unsure if it meets the requirement of being issued by a Thai insurer. Community responses suggest checking the insurance section of the official Thailand Pass website for compliant options and remind that the STV visa requires a minimum coverage of 3.5 million baht for COVID-19. Some users recommend policies from Mister Prakan and note the importance of understanding whether the insurance is just for entry or for broader medical protection.

STV Visa is very restrictive. Can you get a regular tourist visa or go visa exempt and get another with a border bounce?

Mo ****** · Answer

Key is whether you want the insurance just for entry or for protection if you have an accident, cheap $20 policies are unlikely to cover the latter . And if they do trying to claim will be like pulling teeth

Please note that STV visa requires 3.5 million baht covid medical insurance, you must choose at least PLAN1,Should be more than 13,000 baht

I have seen people in this group recommend insurance to get you in the country for $20 US.

There are insurance plans linked to in the insurance section of the official Thailand Pass website tp.consular.go.th if you want to compare. There are cheaper options than the price you indicated. And of course all the plans linked on the Thailand Pass website qualify for entry.

I purchased insurance via Mr Prakan for STV, excellent service and provided everything I needed. Communication via email very good.

I went with a Tune policy.

Haven't needed to claim but have asked a few questions and always get a quick response.
