Hello everyone :) I got my DTV approved and I'm looking for a health insurance plan before arriving. Does anyone have any recommendations? I see things way too cheap to be true or way too expensive haha, thank you in advance and have a nice day.

Applying for my DTV Visa from Ho Chi Minh next week.

Do they ask for Travel / Health Insurance? I currently have SafetyWing and I'm wondering if it's sufficient or if they will ask for documentation.

Question for those in the know. I’m trying to get some health insurance. Problem is I have diabetes, so no one will touch me here, even with a waiver.

The question is should I just omit the fact that I have diabetes ? With my medication it is kept in normal limits

Any opinions , im 58 btw

Hi Guys.... is it just me that's so confused over which health insurance I need in order to apply for nonO visa through thai embassy🫣. I expected nothing is cheap but im getting so many different prices...and shocked by some..am i even googling the right insurance🤷‍♂️...that's why I ask you experts here 🙏. Is it best to pay annually?... monthly?.. how long do I take this out for as my plan is to go on to a retirement visa. At 50 years old with no previous illness what is an average price?... any help would be much appreciated.... Best reply... beers on me 🍻🍻😅

Looking for health insurance for both me and my husband, we are in our mid 50's, I've tried looking but have to admit it's all above my head, so looking for someone to aid us in purchasing some, thanks

Edit: we are in Phuket

I currently reside in the US and I finally secured health insurance to meet the visa requirements.

I know this sounds like an idiotic question but I’m going to ask anyway. What is the easiest way to wire funds directly to the insurance company’s United Overseas Bank (UOB) account?

I have attempted to use Western Union, Wise, and even looked into international wires on my credit union website with no success.

Wise doesn’t list UOB. Western Union errors out citing the need for a BIC/Swift code. And I didn’t see the option to wire funds internationally for any of my 4 credit unions. Its late so Im sure I am overlooking something.

Any suggestions? TIA

Hey,

Can anyone point me in the direction of a health insurance cover for expats that will take me with pre existing medical conditions please?

I'm not worried that they won't cover those conditions, but im looking for cover for accidents, cancer, stroke, heart attack etc.

I'm currently in the UK but after 25 years here with my Thai missus, we've decided its almost time to retire back to Thailand. I'm 49 and she's 53. Plan is to make the move next year when I hit the big 50. But unless I can get cover im quite concerned about not having insurance in place in case the worst happens.

I have spoken to one chap, but he said I was unisurable, but im hoping that isn't the case.

Cheers

I went to multiple branches of Bangkok bank today, but they all refused to open a bank account with my DTV visa, does anyone know any branch where I can open an account?

Also on my entry stamp with  they put a date for six months only, I thought this visa was for five years. I got it directly from the consulate without using an agent so I’m completely unaware. How long can I stay in the country and I how often do I have to leave the country and is it mandatory to purchase health insurance? I’m sorry it’s a lot of questions, but any assistant will be greatly appreciated.

Should I purchase local health insurance from nowconpare.com (e.g. Regency) before arrival on a DTV or after arrival using a local agent?

Anyone have information on health insurance plans in Thailand that cover outpatient services? Also pricing on a full physical with no insurance? Ive heard you can get it done for around 16,000 Bhat?
