Actually under normal times when the Thailand and neighbor border counties borders were open - and Border Runs / Border Bounces could actually happen - a person holding a Non Imm O-A visa could near the end of the First Year bounce out and back in (example Malaysia) and get stamped back into Thailand for another 12 months of the Visa. The second year of the O-A under these circumstances is not an Extension of Stay

The Non Imm O-A visa and Extensions of Stay from it - Does require an insurance policy. While the Non Imm O and subsequent Extensions from it Do Not Require Insurance.

Sounds right

Elite does have a marriage / family rate

Elite has gone up to 600,000

Getting started with the Non Imm O-A requires only the bank account in the home country... easier. And should the Thai Border and Neighbor country borders open up - a border run will get the Non O-A visa holder the extra year with no Extension expense. Plus some people may not decide to stay year after year.

One tip about getting the O-A Visa in the Home Country at the Thai Embassy / Consulate... The 800,000 Baht equivalent only has to be in your bank account for 3 months prior to applying for the O-A visa (some people say only two months - but check it out)... Unless there has been a drastic change recently - unlike getting an one year Extension of Stay in Thailand for an O-A or O visa - the money you bank in your home country to meet O-A visa requirements IS NOT required to be held in that account for a whole year - rather only the few months. A friend of mine just loaned himself the 800,000 equivalent from an investment fund - put it into an account. Then paid himself back after 3 months.
