Hello everyone,

I'm not in Thailand yet, but I'm hoping to move when I retire in a few years.

One question: I've read that you may not do volunteer work with a Retirement Visa as it's considered work. Is this true? If true, do people defy it or is that too risky?

Thank you in advance to anyone who can answer:)

I'm about a month out from filling out a marriage visa. Do I need to secure health insurance from a Thai insurer along with a certificate?

Looks like I also need proof of retirement. Is that a pay stub?

I need information about health insurance in Thailand.

Does one need health insurance for a two week visit?

Hi all,

I've just submitted my e-Visa application for a non-immigrant O (retirement) visa to the Thai Embassy in Wellington, New Zealand. They've come back to me asking for proof of

"Health insurance policy with minimum coverage of 40,000 THB/year for outpatients and 400,000 THB/year for inpatients, and covering the entire duration of the stay in Thailand."

I thought this only applied to the O-A visa?

On their website it lists under "Retirement / Pension Earners REQUIRED DOCUMENTS"

Health insurance policy with minimum coverage of 40,000 THB/year for outpatients and 400,000 THB/year for inpatients, and covering the entire duration of the applicant's stay in Thailand. For more information on health insurance for non-immigrant type "O-A" and "O" visas, please visit [[members only])

If you go to the longstay.tgia.org page it only discusses health insurance for the O-X, O-A and STV visas.

Are they wrong? Am I wrong?

Is health insurance necessary to buy if I have a DTV visa already.

As I saw chat GPT is saying it’s compulsory otherwise in the next entry they can deny entry … Please suggest if other people are also having health insurance with DTV

AIA Health Happy and O-A visa extension.

Hi, I'm gonna extend by second time my O-A visa. For the first 2 years I got AXA Easy Care but it has a very high deductible what make it basicly useful only for visa purposes.

I want to get a better health insurance and AIA matches feels quite interesting.

However they don't have a plan designed for O-A as AXA has.

If I'm not wrong insurance requirements are 400k for inpatient and 40k for outpatient.

AIA offers 25M coverage but about outpatient it says "2k per visit up to 30 times a year". I wonder if this is accepted by immigration.

Anybody else with similar case?

Hi Everyone! 🙌

For those of you on a DTV visa in Thailand, which health insurance policy are you using? Did you purchase it locally in Thailand, or did you bring coverage from your home country?

I’m just trying to figure out the best option !! any advice or personal experience would be super helpful kha.

Hello, I wanted to ask about insurance and a return ticket. Do they ask for them now if you fly in with a new DTV?

Hi everybody. Does anybody of you know a health insurance in Thailand. We did spend a lot of time in Thailand but we are getting older. We are looking for a insurance for 2 month and our age is 75 and 79. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
