What is the current minimum insurance requirement for a Non-OA extension? I thought I had seen that it was reduced from THB 3 million to less, but I can't find that anywhere. Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The current minimum insurance requirement for a Non-OA extension in Thailand has not been officially reduced from THB 3 million, despite previous discussions. Recent changes regarding visa exemptions and policies have not altered the insurance stipulations.

Yes there was talk of it reducing when the thai authorities increased the visa exempt periods and the dtv was introduced last July. However nothing has changed for the insurance requirements since it was first muted. So same as before unfortunately
