What are the key considerations for health insurance while living or traveling in Thailand?

@Stefan *******

99% ? must be a special kind of people you hang around with 😉 No seriously, that number seems a bit high to me. I only know a few who are that irresponsable. I am no friend of insurances, but health should be protected.

Is it legal to work remotely in Thailand on a visa waiver?

Robin *********

Regarding employment, there is no difference between visa exemption and the DTV, both prohibit employment. You can indeed get into a lot of trouble when working with a Thai entity. The never cared though if you work online for foreign clients or employers.

How urgent is it to apply for the DTV before returning to Thailand on a visa exemption?

Robin *********

Depends. If you dont have an extensive record of stamps from the past, especialy in Covid times, you should be fine. But there are many immigration officers in a bad mood out there. Especialy If you enter via Bangkok or Phuket airports.

@Stefanie ********

What is the experience of re-entering Thailand on a DTV visa?

Robin *********

I have all that, yet no issues. As I stated before. I think it depends (yet) on (the mood of) the immigration officer.

My history is not clean (long overstay years ago), but I didn't have any issues with the DTV (I had many with tourist visas). I think it mostly depends on the immigration officer (mood)
