yes travel is possible now to most adjacent countries with little to no requirements.
Proof of vax is the most common requirement, some require insurance still I believe.

Thailand is still a paternal society, the burden of finance falls on the husband.
A foreign wife with thai husband requires no financial proof.

sorry wrong.

If you are legally married she can obtain Non-0 based on being a dependant.
She would piggy back on your visa and extension based on retirement as a trailing spouse.
The financial burden is on the husband only,

you will need to print the screen shot for immigration.

Is there currently a flooding issue in Phuket due to rising water levels?
Chris

There is a little flooding happening up north near the bridge. Looks like sea swell.
Also alot of rainfall today won't help either.
Why is the Thai embassy still asking for medical insurance for a Non-O visa based on marriage despite recent changes?

Covid specific insurance was only required by ThaiPass.
General health insurance is required for certain Visa types (and usually also covers covid as General sickness).
Insurance requirements vary by Visa AND Embassies.
Not all countries have the same requirements.
Converting a tourist Visa in country to a non-o based on marriage requires no insurance.
