TLDR : Answer Summary
To obtain a Non-OA visa for Thailand, you should prepare for specific requirements, including compulsory 12-month health insurance. While a return flight ticket is generally not needed for a one-year visa, it is advisable to verify with the Thai embassy or consulate in the UK, as requirements can vary. You will not need to send your passport by post when applying through the eVisa system, as the process is handled online. It's best to apply close to your intended travel date in November, allowing some time for processing.
