Will my Thaipass application be rejected if my travel insurance doesn't explicitly state coverage over $50k?

I applied for thaipass but my travel insurance didn't explicitly state that it covers more than 50k (though it does), only that it's covid travel insurance and the type of plan. Will it get rejected? I emailed them with the actual policy so they could verify but no reply. Our flight leaves on 28 Dec and it says 3-7 business days so I'm very nervous it'll get rejected on 26 Dec and we don't have time to reapply! Should I apply again for thaipass? Email them?
Answer summary
The user is concerned that their Thaipass application may be rejected because their travel insurance does not explicitly indicate that it covers more than $50,000, although it does cover COVID-related expenses. They have emailed to verify their policy but have not received a response and fear a last-minute rejection before their flight. Community comments suggest that all insurance policies must state the coverage amount clearly to meet Thailand's entry requirements.

Somewhere in that policy it states how much you're covered for. There's no such thing as an insurance policy that doesn't state the limits.

If you don't provide proof that it covers minimum $50,000 then it does not meet the requirements for entry to Thailand.

did you really just say that...you are asking the thai immigration to google and find what your policy covers. It won't happen.

the option was to upload jpeg, not pdf, and that first page was only the policy name. Ok so anyway how do I fix this? I already emailed them with supporting documents and how much it covers. Or should I reapply and attach that in the documents right at the end?

i read on here many times where people are asking from their insurance company a simple cover letter stating just the Covid -19 coverage. I know this situation is so frustrating, the reason why i am holding back all travels plans. I wish you good luck and keep us updated on how you will get it done.

just apply again. It'll take like 7 days for them to reject your existing application and you're allowed to have multiple

the policy says superior plan. It doesn't say how much the superior plan covers, that's in the policy documents that I subsequently emailed but didn't include in the original form submission. If they Google and find it they will see it covers that amount. But I wonder if that counts.

it will NOT be accepted. It MUST state the policy is for US $50,000 or more and that it covers COVID medical care costs

Ok so should I reapply now? Or wait for them to reject then reapply? I don't have time to go back and forth with them so can I just reapply ?
