First time I traveled to Asia (Cambodia), I took antimalarial pills that made sick... Never saw a single bug 🤣 traveled many times and now lived in Asia for many years... Never worried about malaria again.

If you are going some place very remote with know problems maybe it's something to consider.... But if you staying to popular area I would not worry.

The agent you are looking for all are called "schools"... Hope that helps.

"full coverage" here will be different than probably in your western country. Will not cover as much, make sure you read the policy and ask questions.

It would be best to pick the hospital first, so you can understand the level of coverage you will need to go to that hospital.

Then check out AA insurance agency, they can help show you many quotes from all the insurances and are trusted by a lot of expats.

it's hotter outside, the ac has to run more 😉

The actual per unit cost increase was only 5% from last to this month.

no, I converted in country no issue.. This post is a year old 😉

In March mine that took almost 2 weeks. Usually only a day or two though.

If you looking at Thai travel insurance.. Yes pretty expensive.

Buy from your home country usualy a lot cheaper, but it's usually a reimbursement scheme rather than direct pay so be aware. See insure my trip.

Thai insurance tends to exclude more than international insurance. Always read the fine print.

Really! Mine last week took 8 days. I was getting concerned.

You are concerned if you are blacklist or not?

Typically, people will know if they have been blacklist, usually by immigration or police, if you overstayed, or commit another crime.

The best thing for you to do is apply for a visa before you come.

Top upon lazada with foreign credit card for free.... Probably other ways too. I think you can go to 7 eleven as well.
