Regarding the covid health insurance certificate for the CoE application to enter Phuket sandbox from Switzerland. My Thai citizen girlfriend which lives in bkk, can't get it from her thai insurance (aia) and she's gonna subscribe for a temporary one (AXA). What is the shortest period of the time the insurance should cover to be accepted for CoE. 1 week ? 1 month ? 1 year?

Thanks for your help ✌🏼

TLDR : Answer Summary

For the CoE application to enter the Phuket sandbox, the Covid health insurance must cover the duration of quarantine/sandbox stay. The shortest acceptable coverage is typically 30 days.

If she's Thai, she needs it for the duration of the quarantine/sandbox. 30 days is the shortest policies I've seen them sell, which is sufficient for the COE.

Thanks! so it would be only 7 days. Axa allows you to do an insurance for a week.

From what I understand, that should work. Which embassy is she applying for the COE at?
