And for the Non-O obtained in Thailand, can you also use an investment account to show you have at least 800,000 THB, as long as this investment account is with a Thai bank, or this needs to be cash, please?

@Tod ********

Is there a maximum permissible size of the deductible or can it be ANY as long as the headline figure of the policy without taking into account the deductible is at least 100,000 USD / 3,000,000 THB?

So you cannot transfer the visa to a new passport, but have to apply for a new one-year extension once you have the new passport?

@Russell ******

May I ask you two questions, please:

1) Re the bank account opening: The forms you needed to sign at Bangkok bank were in English so you could understand or only in Thai so you basically had to sign things you could not read and did not know what they mean?

2) Re immigration: Did you have to provide a rental contract and if so for what length to get the 90 day non-O / 1 year non-O extension?

Thank you!

The "proof of assets" document you referred to here as an alternative to health insurance: "Alternatively, if insurance is declined you can use proof of assets in your home country to the same value as the insurance, although obviously having the insurance is a better strategy"; "It's only for those who are declined insurance. It's on the MFA website. Starts on October 1st". Thank you.

@Steve *******

But that also presumably means that the second year only works if you do not leave Thailand for some travel the entire second year? Because once you do leave in the second year, you cannot come back on that visa since it then already expired?

@Steve *******

Would you have a link for this, please, as I cannot find the document on the website? Thanks!

Great group! Thank you for your work! Really appreciate it!

But would he not need to show a rental agreement for the entire year when applying for the one-year extension and renting a place without actually using it for a large part of this would be expensive?
