Hi all, has anyone had difficulties getting Thai health insurance for an over 50 1 year retirement visa, when in remission (20 + years) for cancer and what would you expect to pay🤔
Answer summary
The discussion revolves around the difficulties faced by an expatriate in securing Thai health insurance for a retirement visa, particularly after a long period in remission from cancer. There is concern over the clarity of visa rules and the necessity of having proper documentation when entering Thailand, including health insurance that meets visa requirements. Participants share insights on the implications of past health issues on obtaining insurance and suggest that costs and coverage may vary.
