Think you mean "INpatient" ? Because outpatient bills almost cost nothing in most cases.

Coverage/paying out, is 'the key' over here. I pay 16,700฿ quarterly (So which is about 2.025$ a year at 68 for 2,5 year now). And thank god I not needed them. Hope so for the next 10 years 🤞BUT I think best to look for recent reviews on most known, like Cigna, Pacific cross, AXA, AIA, April etc.

I know, I know Brandon, and maybe "have to" is not the right saying but 'should do'. Because it would be a verry strange contradiction, isn't it ? I mean allowing people to stay for over 3 months, and not allowing a Thai drivers License which I thought is mandatory after 3 months driving with y'r home license and IDP. But y'r right, after 7 years living hear: TiT.

I think they HAVE to do it, isn't it ? Because with DTV you are here for 180 days each time. After 3 months I thought its mandatory to drive with a Thai one ? Or am I missing something ?

@Christopher *******
TRUE. More and more reports. Also on Thai visa advice group.

Korat ? Well in all the time you used this imm. office, meanwhile you must know that it's one of the friendliest, helpful and correct office there is. Although rare, it was just a random check as they said.

I think, as usual, it differs a bit from office to office again. Had my original Dutch drivers License with International Drivers Permit, indeed a Certificate of Residence from immigration and a Health Certificate from a small clinic for 60฿. This with some copies (passport etc.) let me do the 4 tests (Colour, fast break and depth) without seeing movie or drive test. Got it for 2 years. Was in DLT Nakhon Ratchasima on the road to Chokchai. But must admit this was 6 years ago 🤷‍♂️🙏

Well I think best advice is to let it on y'r phone for now. I downloaded the BKB app on my new phone, but could not register it (Android, while IN Thailand). To make a long story short; my (Avast) virusscanner was in the way. After deleted, it was okay. Then I just put back this virusscanner and it still was okay. Sometimes also a VPN app installed can give problems, also when it is not running. In y'r situation I would not take the risk and keep it on y'r old phone for now.

Well, y'r right. And IF there are a lot of good comments on an insurance, then they cost a lot of money.

Well, I have WRLife for 2,5 years now, and happy I never needed to claim. In the beginning read rather good stories even from a closer friend (needed a stent). Another friend got some spine cancer, but they did not pay. Lately alas, I read more and more negative stories. The premium is nice though, so fingers crossed that IF I need some payment (hopefully not for the next 10 years), they will pay.
