I just received the Easy Care VISA health insurance policy in a PDF through AXA Insurance which was listed in the Longstay.tgia.org website. It also included the Foreign Insurance Certificate. The policy itself is four pages and 4 MB which is too large to upload and gets rejected when trying to upload to the Thai E-visa website. The PDF is protected from modification so I can't make the file smaller. I sent an email to AXA in Bankok explaining the situation but I'm not hopeful they will do anything about it. I wish uploading the Foreign Insurance Certificate was sufficient, but it seems that the actual policy document is a requirement when choosing a company from the longstay.tgia.org website. anybody have any suggestions?

High can anyone help me with this? I’m applying for a OA visa and filling out the application form, just a bit puzzled by the question 6&7 documents to be added

6- Health insurance issued by Thai or Foreign insurer

7-Foreign Insurance Cert

Not really sure what is what as I’m in the process of of organising Health Insurance with a Thai approved Co

Any advice please TIA

Question : for Non O-A visa is accepted an international insurance ?

I’m completing the Non-OA visa application, and have a few questions.

The application requests the “7. Foreign Insurance Certificate, as stipulated by the Office of Insurance Commission and Health Insurance of Thailand, must be completed, signed, and stamped by the insurance company. The form can be downloaded from [members only]”.

The documents provided by the insurance company provide the exact same information as required in the form, but have a slightly different appearance than the downloaded form.

Should I have the exact form completed or is the priority to provide the required information? Any idea as to what would be acceptable to the embassy?

*The other issue is that the insurance policy is 5MB instead of 3MB or smaller. “6. Health Insurance issued by a Thai or foreign insurer, covering general illnesses, including COVID-19, with a minimum insured sum of 100,000 USD or 3,000,000 THB. “*

*What are the expectations here? Do they need the entire document? Is there a reliable free app that can further downsize the original 18 page PDF? *

I used a trial of Adobe Acrobat to compress the file further. It looked terrible, so I split the original file in half and compressed each half separately and rejoined them. It's both under the 3MB limit and more legible.

Thank you in advance.

( I know the "O" does not require health insurance). For anyone on an O-A visa, this is required Foreign Insurance Certificate: As stipulated by the Office of Insurance Commission and Health Insurance of Thailand, this certificate must be completed, signed, and stamped by the insurance company. Has anyone had luck with that specifically BCBS Federal? TIA!

What is the difference between these two requirements?

Foreign Insurance Certificate as stipulated by the Office of Insurance Commission and Health Insurance of Thailand, which must be completed, signed and stamped by the insurance company.

Health Insurance issued by a Thai or foreign insurer for general illnesses, including COVID-19, with the insured sum of no less than 100,000 USD or 3,000,000 THB

Ok, for the O A visa application it asks you to send the provided foreign insurance certificate. Is this to be filled in by the Thai health insurance you buy as part of this application or are you required to buy travel insurance as well in your home country and have them sign it?

Anyone here have experience with VISA medical coverage requirments and TriCare?

Hi there. Just applying for my Non-Immigrant O-A visa. I am currently in Australia and will be applying from here. A question relating to the Foreign Insurance Certificate. Any recommendations on a provider? Many thanks.

Hello, has someone gotten a one year non-imm OA visa extension recently at Chaeng Wattans and what was the required health insurance. I asked my insurance broker for an estimate with the new rule of 3 000 000 bath coverage instead of the 400 000 baths with a Thai approved company and he said that it depends of the immigration center??? Apparently some centers apply the new rule, some don't? Also it seems you can use your international insurance, for the last 2 years I bought a Thai policy that I never used, so I would very much like to use my own European insurance but I have read that the policy must be approved by an embassy. What is that? Thanks for your input
