@Tammy ***********

my OX visa was stamped 2024 when I entered in 2019, on the surface, it looks like double insurance plus length of stay reduced 😵‍💫🤦🏼. (Assuming they won’t stamp anyone past 1 year as that is all insurance companies will sell)

I am curious about the double insurance requirement.. It looks like OA visas with ~ a year left need to buy ~ a years travel insurance to enter (eg. After a short overseas holiday) with the Thai Pass. Even though they are already required to have full time, local health insurance for their visa.

But insurance is required and the number of insured days determines the number of days you can stay in Thailand?

I had a similar issue (but different countries and passports). I was warned that my baby son might not be able to board a plane out of the country as he had not entered it .. the risk was that he could be considered as ‘stolen’ ..
