You’re welcome 😊

@Maxi *****

There’s really too much for me to list.

Go to

You can look at the requirements, by clicking on the User Manual, on the top bar, choose English Document.

You don’t need to have created an account with them, to look at that.

@Maxi *****

Yes

@Maxi *****

Thank you. I’m very happy to have the Visa.

I have not deposited 800,000Baht.

I don’t actually have a Thai bank account yet.

I got the Non-OA Visa from the London Thai Embassy, via the thaievisa.

I will be returning to Thailand next month.

@Maxi *****

Yes

I think it’s a requirement to go to Acro. The national criminal records office.



The standard time to allow for a response, is 20 working days, which is, effectively, a month.

I paid the extra fee, to get the response in 2 days. I got it 2 days after applying.

@Graeme *****

I got health insurance from AXA, which is in the approved list of insurers, on the Embassy website.

I found them to be most economical; and simple to use.

They have standard costs, depending on age group.

For my age, that was 26,630Baht.

They can do that because they don’t cover any current or previous conditions.

I’m not sure how effective the insurance will be, but I’m, obviously, hoping not to test it.🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Interesting 🤔

I’m thinking that I’ll definitely have more than 12 monthly deposits made, by the time I, possibly, apply for the Non-O, so that’s another possible solution.

I’m also going to checkout, if the amount of health insurance is reduced from the current 3,000,000Baht.

It was the cost of that, that put me off extending my current Non-OA Visa.

So many things to consider, but at least I have time on my side. 😃

@Jan *****************

Ok, thanks. I’ll be asking at my local immigration office, well in advance of my current Visa expiring, so I can assess my choices.

@Bob *********

Yeah, I suppose so.

Quite a long time.🤔

I better put a reminder in my phone.😂🤣
