Also have a look at the CheckDi price comparison site, there are few insurers on here offering policies for DTV.

AXA do a policy called Essential Care, popular for DTV holders. (A lot of the other insurers don’t accept DTV). No need to go through an agent with this policy and can buy it directly online.

Both are good reputable companies. Contact

Genki

AIA don’t accept DTV, AXA would be your best choice, can buy directly online, no need to go through a broker.

They will not ask you for proof of insurance as it’s not a requirement, but for DTV holders Genki is a popular one.

Genki, backed by Allianz, you can get cover immediately starting in your home country.

absolutely correct, no work permit and/or TIN, no concern, but no matter how much you repeat this it makes no difference, it’s like talking to a brick wall.

Anonymous participant yes I’m totally aware some DTV holders will already have a Thai bank account, and these are the first ones to have potentially shot themselves in the head by converting from whatever visa status they had before. I’m referring to the newbie DTV holders who don’t yet have a Thai bank account. I’m one of the few people who believes absolutely nothing will come out of this, but on the very small chance of it happening it will be the DTV people with bank accounts first for the chopping board.

@Ray ****

beyond boring, DTV holders can’t even open a bank account without an under the table agent, if the Thai government was intending to tax DTV holders they would be informing the banks to allow them to open an account right? So many people just refuse to use basic common sense. It really is boring now.
