Travel insurance is very important in the DTV file?
Answer summary
The importance of travel insurance during the DTV visa application process has mixed opinions among expats. While some emphasize that having travel insurance is critical for emergencies, especially considering potential high medical costs without coverage, others note that it is not a formal requirement for the application itself. Many agree that travel insurance is advisable, especially to cover accidents and emergencies during travel, though it may not be necessary for long-term illness cover if one plans to return home in such situations.

On the DTV application there is no way to even upload it. Also it is good to have it anyways if you get sick or you can pay a clinic or go to a Thai public hospital. ( I have done both )

Yeah, extremely important. You might die, or you might not. Insurance doesn’t care, have some savings for such cases

Travel insurance is very good value for as long as you can get it for. After you've been overseas for a year, you won't be eligible any more. Get it while it's still available to you.

Travel insurance typically covers accidents + emergencies, which is all the cover you need assuming you're from a country with socialised health care. You don't need cover for long-term illness, because you'd presumably return home if you fell seriously ill.

It’s important in case of emergency. The hospital isn’t required to take you by law. I had to pay a lot of money without it.
