Hello everyone 🙂

I have a Non O Visa based on marriage and it will activate on September 25th when I enter Thailand 🇹🇭

When am I able to apply for medical insurance?

When I enter?

Can I do it earlier? As I understand they may be a stand down period for major sicknesses

Thanks so much 🙏

Hi all

Looking to get a 1 year OA visa. I have the funds but am unsure what everyone is doing about medical insurance. Any help would be greatful

Can someone recommend health insurance company in thailand, im aged 72 with medical issues

I arrived in Thailand on a 3-month Non-O visa. After securing a lease and getting a letter from immigration, I was able to open a bank account. (Bangkok Bank refused me even with the immigration letter, but Kasikorn Bank accepted.)

Now I’m preparing to apply for a 1-year retirement visa. I have a few questions for those who have gone through this process, especially without using an agent:

1. Is medical insurance required for this visa?

2. How long do I need to wait after transferring the required funds before I can submit my application?

3. After the extension is granted, do I need to keep the full amount (or part of it) in the account, and if so, for how long?

Any recommendations to get medical insurance for 68 yr old US citizen with meds to control high blood pressure and cholesterol? 🙏🏽

A question about the Non-Immigrant O-A visa. It seems to be too good to be true. At least according to the Thai Consulate in Munich you need to be over 50, show a PENSION income of at least 65,000 baht monthly (currently €1700) OR 800,000 baht in a bank account HERE in Germany. Plus you need medical insurance and a certificate from the police. They say this allows multiple entries and stays of up to one year PER ENTRY.

This seems to be too good to be true. Meaning you’d just have to get this visa once and you could come and go and each time and stay up to a year. Or stay permanently and do a visa bounce once a year. There seems to be no time limit. No lining up at Immigration to get extensions and multiple re-entry permits. Do I understand this correctly?

I’m considering this visa because banks are reported to be cracking down on accounts held by foreigners who don’t have long-stay visas.

My wife and I, both 71 are in Koh Samui on individual Non Imm ME OA VISAs from South Africa. Expiry date is 28 Feb. I have already extended our Med Insurance for another year. My question is whether We can do a border hop by air ,first buy a re-entry at airport and then get stamped back in until Med insurance expiry date. This is to circumvent the tedious bank statements/letter etc. plus all the hoops to jump before extension? Obviously one may only be allowed to do this once but may give up to a year reprieve.

Your wise input is much appreciated.
