different requirements depending on the consulate I guess. Ottawa did not require proof of Medical insurance for the visa. Only for COE process.

this was from the Ottawa Thai consulate

someone else just posted their extention experience. He's also an American. Search recent posts, it should help you with what you need to provide. Good luck.

Guess it's different depending on which country you are applying from. In Canada you need to have a flight booked to even apply for the visa. Once the visa is issued then I'll book everything else.

Americans can now apply for a single entry tourist visa. There are some new criteria to meet compared to the regular process however. Or you can also apply for the Elite visa.

thanks for the heads up. I'm just happy to be able to go back. :)

Thank you for your quick reply. This is what I wanted clarification on. I'm aware of validity of stay on the "normal" single entry tourist visa, just wondering if that is now different because of covid-19 and the fact that the STV is not being made available to most countries. Was hoping someone here who has recently been approved could answer.

@Sarunya *****

thank you. Yes I'm aware of the STV however it's not available for where I'm from.

Hey Jeff, I've emailed the Thai Consulate in Ottawa a couple of times and they still haven't responded. Their website is also not updated with the lasted info so 🤷‍♂️
