Insurance related question so hope falls under ‘More’ category!

Any advice on best travel insurance company to use for travelling from Thailand to USA? Most UK/European providers need you to depart and return from/to your ‘home’ country.

Hello fellow DTVers,

Which health insurance company do you recommend for being in Thailand on DTV (up 6 months in a year not to hit tax residency) - and not spend fortune on it.

Edit - any experience with Safety Wing?

Cheers,

Piotr

The O-A visa requires a health insurance policy, that covers 400,000 baht for inpatient and 40,000 baht for outpatient coverage from certified health insurance companies.

I would like to save a little with the premiums of the health insurance policy.

Does anybody know, if these policies are also accepted by the thai embassy, if a deductible is agreed on with the insurance company?

As a DTV holder has anyone successfully purchased Motorbike Insurance? I’m told that as it is still categorised as a “Tourist Visa” that Insurance companies may not insure!🙏👍 also I’ve only held my Thai Motorbike License for less than one year.

Hi I am relocating to Thailand in March. Anyone have any recommendations for companies with good health insurance please?

How easy / straightforward is it to get a health insurance cover locally if you’re on a DTV visa? Any recommendations on reliable providers? Or should I be taking out WW or nomad health insurance from home country?

Has anyone in this group made a claim on their travel insurance when traveling in Thailand? If so, how successful was it?

Medical insurance…

PLEASE ONLY POST IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUS / CURRENT CLAIMS EXPERIENCE.

Would like to hear from members experiences with medical insurance companies. Who have you used that have good customer service and settled your claim without any fuss?

Not sure if we can mention the bad ones due to laws here in Thailand? I’m sure someone will clarify if that can be discussed.

Thanks in advance.

Will be spending 6 months in Thailand (Oct 24-Mar 25) what do you other guys in there 60's do about health/travel insurance. Can't find travel insurance in the UK to cover that length of time. Any suggestions....

I am sure that this question has been asked and answered many times previously but here goes. I am approaching 70 years old and in good health. I will be visiting Thailand for 3 months, January-March next year. What do I do re insurance? Do I take the chance and not take any out? Do I pay a higher premium for the 3 months? That’s if I can even get any. Insurance companies seem reluctant to pay out anyway, so is it actually worth it?
