I recently documented, on my Travel Blog, the process as it applies in the United Arab Emirates. You may find some useful tips there as the process should be similar around the world. Good Luck 🇹🇭🙏🏻

I had an OA for 6 years. These days I would recommend pursuing an O visa without the health insurance requirement. I’m not saying you shouldn’t have health insurance but only that it doesn’t have to be tied to your visa and it may allow you more flexibility in the policy you choose.
