Hello Group Members,

Last time I visited Thailand, I got insurance from TuneProtect as it was required due to Covid. I know currently it's not mandatory but I think everyone should have insurance for traveling. Nothing bad happened for my trip last time and I didn't have to use it at all.

I am travelling again this Friday (2 months TR visa) and would like to know which insurance should I get. Along with Covid, I am really interested to find something that covers Motorbike Travel (i.e. any unforeseen travel accident). Can you recommend something ?? How is your experience in case you are riding the bike yourself. (Have proper license i.e. My country license and IDP). I have seen mixed reviews of complains when they try to pin things on you if you get into an motorbike accident. (Mainly regarding License)

Also, is there any insurance company that covers Thailand and Combodia. (Going to Combodia for 2 weeks after my Thailand trip). It be nice if one company does both countries but if I have to get different insurance for Combida, I am fine with that as well.

Thanks

I've been traveling to Thailand every year for almost 30 years and never once would I have used insurance if I had it to use. Many and possibly most people can afford to self insure.

why buy redundant insurances? I had to during 2021 for a piece of paper to satisfy Thai visa and immigration requirements. Waste of money.

I just feel it's a better choice for me to self insure. It may not be the best decision for everyone. My experience tells me I've been right so far. If I had to shell out a million I wouldn't be losing much if anything?

If you ever need insurance you will know why unless you have very deep pockets

SafetyWing is quite easy and clear to understand. It's what I use as travel insurance.
