Info only. I have an O-A visa issued in Australia valid until Jan 16, 2020 (issued Jan 17, 2019). Arrived back in Chiang Mai from KL today 13 Jan after 3 day visit. Hoping for another 12 month stamp. IO asked to see Health Insurance, I have the appropriate insurance until Dec 15 2020 and showed him certificate.

I told IO I didn't think I needed insurance as my visa was issued before Oct 31, 2019.

He then stamped my passport until Jan 11, 2021. Very happy with the outcome.
Answer summary
The user successfully renewed their O-A visa upon returning to Chiang Mai, despite initial inquiries from immigration about their health insurance. They were able to provide proof of valid insurance, leading to a new stamp extending their visa validity.
