TLDR : Answer Summary
The question seeks guidance on obtaining travel insurance for a Thai person visiting Australia on a holiday visa and whether insurance is mandatory for entry. Comments suggest checking with Australian travel groups for local providers, and include recommendations for specific companies like Medibank, Allianz, and HCF. Some commenters clarify that while travel insurance is not a strict requirement for all travelers, it is advisable and often beneficial.

Bangkok bank we use easy to make a claim and pay in a few weeks after all required documents sent in

Your airline probably sells it ...looks for "add-ons" ..

Use an Australian company ONLY, as you have better legal protections and recourse if anything goes wrong with a claim - use HCF overseas visitors cover etc

there's a lot of Australian companies offering it. Medibank Allianz are just a couple. Just google it

Insurance IS or IS NOT a requirement?

Its never been a requirement for my wife although we bought it. 600 visa.

Have a look on Mr Prakan for all your Thailand insurance requirements

You can compare policies and prices in it from the leading providers

Perhaps best to ask in an Australian based travel group.
