What are the challenges and considerations of using a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa to enter Thailand by land?

Pedro **********

This whole "get the correct visa".. well 1. if you chose Thailand to be your destination because of friend base, because you enjoy it more than other countries, so you get the tourist visa, as I do not see other options. Yet, even getting the tourist visa, people are getting turned away.

What are the new health insurance requirements for O-A visas in Thailand?

Pedro **********

Instead of getting an O-A, can a over 50yr, who is not married to a thai, not having thai children, not doing volunteer work, etc.. qualify for a 1 year non-O ? I was told by the local thai consulate that they will only issue Non-O if you are married to a Thai national.

What are my options and requirements for switching to a non-O visa in Thailand, especially regarding extensions and health insurance?

Pedro **********

To Robert's point 3, if you have a new/recent O-A that expires, say Sept 2020, would you need to show proof of insurance if you re-enter say Jan 1, 2020 at port of arrival ? I thought it was only when applying for a New O-A post Oct

Will I be required to have Health Insurance when renewing my Non-OA visa at age 74?

What information gathered, I believe you only show insurance evidence when APPLYING for the O-A. I don't believe immigration at checkpoint will ask for it.

Do I need to notify immigration if I have a reentry visa and just returned to Thailand on a retirement visa?
