TLDR : Answer Summary
There is no requirement for health insurance for a visa extension based on marriage, regardless of whether it's a Non-O or Non-OA visa.

the last I remember you had decided to forgo the extension based on marriage and instead go for the year-long, multi-entry Non-O visa based on marriage from the thai consulate in HCMC Vietnam.

There is no proof of insurance required on that visa where you bounce every 90 days OR on a yearly extension of stay based on marriage that you get from the immigration office from it.

thanks Todd, you have a great memory! I was asking for a friend but I will also be applying for an extension based on marriage in Chiang Rai.

Is there no insurance required for both a Non-O extension based on marriage AND a Non-OA based on marriage?

Thank you in advance ...

a non-oa is based on being over 50

assuming that you entered whenever on a non-o as opposed to a non-oa , there is no requirement
