What kind of insurance is needed for a DTV extension in Thailand?

Keith ************

@Angelo **********

I just read up on it. There are several visa types that require insurance. And there are many situations that do not legally require health insurance if going to Thailand. If you can point to a law that says different, I'm happy to correct myself.

@Angelo **********

You are not required to have health insurance to live in Thailand. The non-O doesn't require insurance on renewal. The non-oa has an insurance requirement, and perhaps others, I'm not sure.

I would guess it's a mistake. They copied the text over from the OA visa email or something. Remember immigration isn't that familiar with renewals of this visa yet.

Why are visa application requirements inconsistent for freelancers and those using the soft power option in Thailand?

Keith ************

If you're coming to Thailand, get used to things not making sense. And get used to different offices of the same branch of government 'interpreting' laws and regulations differently.

Do I have to pay taxes on 1 million baht cash in Thailand if I live off it for two years?

Keith ************

@Stefani *******

it's my understanding that Thai taxes are based on money remitted to Thailand only, and not worldwide income, but they are considering adding the worldwide income aspect.

Why do some members disrespect others in advice groups for expats in Thailand?

I block every single person who gives an answer that is snarky. They get a pass if there's anything useful in the reply though.

Anonymous participant to the local immigration office where you're staying. When I got a new passport, I actually paid an agent to do this. I don't usually pay an agent. They took both my passports down and had the immigration office take care of it.

When you get your new passport, just go to immigration and they'll update their records and transfer stamps over.
