What health insurance options should I consider when applying for a Non-OA visa in Thailand with 800,000 baht in a Thai bank?
Lynnette *******
@Alison *********
 there's no difficulties opening an account when on a non-O. The non-OA doesn't require a bank account but is linked in date to the insurance. Which can be costly and not very good.

That's weird. You've got the 800k so just get the non-O. The O-A isn't what you need.

Can I show US currency as proof of funds when entering Thailand?
Lynnette *******
@Diane *******
 nothing to do with extension or whether you've been asked. The question was 'is it a requirement'. Yes, it is. But it's rarely ever asked for.

What is the process for applying for the DTV visa while facing complications with the Non-O visa in Thailand?
Lynnette *******
You've got a bank account. You put required money in bank. Head to neighboring country, apply Non-O retirement e-visa ( NOT O-A ) and use entry stamp with accomodation booking to prove you are there. Re-enter Thailand and do 12 month extension of stay. It's been explained by others too.
