I am applying for a oa type Visa and I have the paperwork in front of me and I requesting information about insurance does this have to be Thai insurance and if so how do you get high insurance while you're in the United States

does DTV can accept AIA health insurance? i talk to agent and it said it only AXA or genki.

Hi is anyone aware of a Thai Insurance Company that will allow you to Purchase a Domestic Health Insurance Policy on a DTV? I've looked at a few companies and they all seem to require you have a LTR, OA or OX Visa.

Hello,

I am hoping to plan a move to thailand in 2025, I have a remote job for which I net over 3000cad/month.

I dont have the saving requirements that I saw online. Is it possible to get a long term visa without having those savings I saw online?

Thanks,

Hi All, I am investigating longer term Visas for Thailand. I am from the UK. I have a longterm girlfriend here and have recently retired. A marriage visa is the ultimate goal. However on some of the Visa requirements proof of Medical Insurance is required. I had a Heart Attack in 2018 which required a stent, on speaking to AXA, they told me it will be impossible to get any Insurance. I understand pre-existing conditions maybe excluded, but they said "not possible to get any insurance". Has anyone had recent experience of this and can point me to a solution? Thank you in advance.

Has anyone had direct experience with the Expat Health Insurance Company called MSH International? [members only]/ or [members only]/

Hello. I’m almost 59. I’d like to test retirement in Thailand. The only way is to commit to 1 year and then make a decision. Is a retirement visa the only way to live in Thailand for a year?

Hey yall I recently visited Thailand in November into December and I fell in love with the culture the lifestyle and everything else about Thailand I’m from the US and I desperately want to move to Thailand. I’m not sure what route to take. I know there’s visa options but I’m not sure. Which one I should apply for as I want to stay long-term a year or more. If any of you have advice on what route to take, I would love to hear I’m retired by medical discharge from the military and I do have, a pension coming in although I’m only 38 years old and now at the retirement age

First I want to thank any responders in advance. I also want to express my appreciation of this form, I keep learning from it.

I am a US citizen and I am 71 with several questions.

I currently have a one year multiple entry marriage visa. For complex personal reasons I will likely need to change to a retirement visa. I have 800K baht in a Thai bank account. I have monthly social security income that will more than meet Thai minimum requirements. and can be direct deposited to a Thai bank.

I do not think have the funds to apply for any of the newer higher cost visas essentially established to attract wealthier retirees. Although, if the one that costs 50K baht were for some reason strongly recommended, I could potentially save enough before a move to apply for that one.

Any suggestions or recommendations about converting from a marriage visa to a retirement visa?

Since I need my social security to live on in the US until a move here, how can I transition from the 800K baht in a Thai savings account requirement to demonstrating I have sufficient monthly deposits to meet Thai requirements?

If I have sufficient monthly income, does that eliminate the requirement of maintaining $800K baht in the bank

I am confused by insurance requirements. Is there any way to demonstrate sufficient income so that the insurance requirement is waived?

If I need the insurance, who will insure an older gent at a reasonable cost for the Thai minimum coverage?

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I am new to this site. I hope I make sense with this long question. I want to move to Thailand I am 76. I know I will have to deposit around $26,000. in a bank and leave it there. I know I will have to get insurance; I have talked to an agent. I want to make one trip and stay, no return to Florida or USA. We have an embassy here. I want to rent for 6 months then buy a condo when I decide where I want to live. What type of Visa to I need to get to come over and not leave? Thank you in advance.
