What are the cheapest insurance options for travelers in Thailand and Southeast Asia?

Peter ****

Fwd is the cheapest, 650 baht for 30 days . But need to note the 14 days waiting period. It’s cheapest if you just want to meet the Thailand pass requirement, and don’t care about the insurance coverage.

you don’t get my point. The history print out date will never been the application date, that is what I want to clarify the history print out date is not necessary be the same application date, otherwise it is not possible for Bangkok bank account holder to get the document for IO.

What are the requirements for obtaining a yearly extension based on retirement in Thailand regarding bank statements?

Peter ****

I had a question about the history print out date below:

Some IO request the bank letter date same as the application date of extension. How about the date of transaction history print out? Since the Bangkok bank need to order it few days ago, when I get the print out, sure the date will be earlier than the application date.

Peter ****

Pattaya is more easy in document requirement, but they need you come many times to complete the extension process. (Some immigration office need you get letter from embassy, some need you return ticket, but Pattaya immigration does not these document)
