Non imm O-A expats like me have been here for many years. I asked a question about health insurance. I am afraid your response was of no help.

@Stuart ********
sorry. But I know this. Can you give me some current and valid news or updates that are not readily available on social media ?
Geoff ********
Congratulations. What kind of health insurance do you have that legally satisfies the Thai Immigration Dept ?

@chris ********************************
Dr Walter is not on the Immigration list of 12 insurers one must use so I don’t know how they accepted your policy.

Mogens Nygaard in addition I should advise you that since the age of 59 I have had a one million baht health insurance cover for IPD here in Thailand with the company formerly known as BUPA now AETNA. So I have had responsible health insurance in Thailand for the last 17 years.

Mogens Nygaard sorry. But you are wrong. As a single person living in Thailand for 17 years I have to show Immigration EVERY YEAR that I have 800,000 baht in a Thai bank from an external source. Then after getting my one year retirement extension, I then have to return to Immigration after three months to prove that I have not spent anything from that figure in the meantime. Please don’t give out incorrect information. Prior to the changes last year, one could show a certified letter from my Embassy proving an income overseas to equate to 800,000 baht. This option was discontinued.
