What are the key considerations for health insurance while living or traveling in Thailand?

Abdulghani ******

The public hospitals are and extremely affordable almost free, if someone cannot afford treatment in public hospitals then frankly should not travel and home, therefore I don’t see any value of medical insurance. Pay out of pocket private hospital or public hospitals

Do I need to maintain 500k THB in my bank account for re-entry to Thailand on a DTV?

Abdulghani ******

Thailand immigration does recognise crypto as a currency or value, so try to avoid investing in crypto, immigration has the right to ask you at border entry to demonstrate financial fitness, do not show or mention crypto, this is synonymous with fraud and scam in Thailand
