some people have posted recently that they had gotten the Non O-A Visa in their home country. Look at previous posts and you should see some such cases.

Nha Trang, Vietnam, wondering whether to go body boarding before breakfast or after it.

I meant Thailand should let people currently in Vietnam Enter Thailand without quarantine. Vietnam should do the same for people in Thailand. Foreigners could do visa runs, which would increase passengers on flights a bit.

I have heard that it is possible to get into Cambodia now without quarantine, other than two nights on arrival while they get results on your Covid test.

Vietnam has even lower numbers of Covid cases than Thailand. It would make sense to use Vietnam as a trial for letting people enter without quarantine. Granted lots of Vietnamese don’t visit Thailand but there are some as well as foreigners staying in Vietnam on visa extensions who would like to go to Thailand.

I only got the 40,000 outpatient cover because that is one of the requirements for the Non O-A Visa. The insurance agent even told me it was cheaper to just pay out of pocket for outpatient visits, but I wanted to apply for a Non O-A Visa, so needed that coverage.

the Non O-A Visa required a minimum insurance cover. There is a possibility that will be extended to Non O visas. And anyone entering the Kingdom needs $100,000 Covid cover.

I checked the site given by Thai immigration about Thai health insurance plans that would cover the health coverage requirements for the Non O visa. Pacific Cross seemed to be the only one based in Thailand that would offer me cover at my age. There are many local agents you can contact, easy to find by searching the internet. They can give someone specific information. If you are younger, you have lots more choices.

I needed to take a health checkup when I first enrolled in the plan at 69 years of age, but had no pre-existing conditions. I think if you enroll at 65 or older, a health checkup is required.
