Can I use my worldwide emergency care health insurance for an OA retirement visa application in Thailand?

@Pascal ****

said, get a Non O. You’ll need the insurance for the initial application but not for any subsequent Extension. Saves you buying a second policy each year when you already have insurance.

@Bobby *******

Yes, but that’s not what you said. It’s also no good if someone wants to settle in Thailand.

@Bobby *******

Neither require 800k in Thai bank account for initial application. Both require it for annual Extension.

What health insurance options are suitable for a 67-year-old moving to Thailand on a retirement visa?

David *******

You don’t need insurance for the Non O ‘for Retirement’. Get that visa.

You can then buy whatever insurance suits you best and not worry about it meeting Immigration requirements.

Do I need proof of leaving Thailand after 45 days or can I show proof after 75 days?

David *******

There is a small chance that Thai Immigration will ask, there is a greater chance that the airline will ask at check-in.

You might be ok but there’s a decent chance that you won’t.

Is there a requirement to show £10,000 in a UK bank account when applying for a Non-Immigrant O visa?

David *******

@Andrew *******

the RTE London website says 3 months so, as they handle applications, I’m going by that. You could always contact them to check everything as I’ve been told they don’t actually enforce the insurance requirement even though it’s on the website.

David *******

It’s been a requirement for a while but if it’s a Non O for being over 50 then it’s either proof of pension OR the 10k for 3 months not both. I recently got a Non O and used an occupational pension.
