Maybe, but "Non-RE" is clearly what Immigration wrote as "Visa Class" on a stamp on the first page of many new passports, and my understanding is that it means that we got a Non Immigrant visa in the aim of getting retirement extensions.
Mine is stamped the same this time....

Yea I talked to Weegee after he got home from Immigration .What he said and what ubonjoe said is Correct. the insurance requirement is for the O-A visa that's obtained in ones home country and is valid only for one year. if one want's an Extension based on retirement after that one doesn't need Insurance But one needs the 2 month THB 800k in the bank before applying for the extension and than the 3 months after application one must still have the THB 800K, after that one must have THB400K that then must be Topped up to THB 800K 2 months before applying for the next Extension
According to the order, health insurance is not required for those applying for an extension of stay based on retirement and only applies to Non O-A visas. Non O-A visas are obtained from an embassy or consulate outside of Thailand. Thank you all Kindly ????
Exactly....and thanks. The Immigration Depts are all falling into Sync at last....I believe everything I was told yesterday by Immigration was correct. They were so helpful and friendly about the great list of questions i had with me...I came away Happy.

AFAIK, there was never any question or serious indication that the latest insurance requirement was in any way going to apply to marriage extensions of stay or even to O visas based on marriage.
The still looming question, though, among others, is will the insurance requirement apply to people who already have O-A visas issued BEFORE Oct. 31 who then make entry to Thailand on that visa AFTER Oct. 31. On that issue, among others, there is considerable speculation.
From what i understand...Insurance doesnt apply once you have been here, and then go for your extension.
Read what i put at the top again....I wrote it as soon as i walked in the door. That covers your question.

Here's a question I bet you didn't ask them.
What about those O-A visa people effected if/when they first go for annual extension in Thailand? Insurance required or not?
And the Answer to that question was...NO! not required...Non OA only....and they are only obtained OUT of Thailand...Anything applied for INSIDE Thailand is exempt.

As of 11am today, from Hatyai Immigration, who in my books are the greatest ,most helpful bunch of People i have ever delt with...
UBON JOE is absolutely correct with everything he has stated...For God sake listen to him.
TAKE NOTE :-
Done the marriage extension today at 11am and this is what they told me.
Anyone who is already here on Marriage extension DOES not have to worry about this Insurance Cover....even on renewal. NOT required
The only ones required to do so are the people who are applying at an Embassy...OUTSIDE of Thailand.
It is only applicable to NON-OA....NO one else.
With regard to the number of days money is required to be in the Bank before for Marriage extension...it is definitely 60 days...PERIOD!!!
Today I asked all the questions i could think of to be able to relay to the forum here.
So there you go..
Hope this helps you all out a bit more...

Thais are so intelligent that their Minister for health will be unable to see the potential public health issues generated from tearing families apart.
And thats whats going to happen....BOOM...falang gone cant stay....Families back to eating nothing again, so they look like they are keeping up with everyone else around them....
Damn Sad actually to think of how many Families are going to be torn apart over this ...

There was an interesting article in Bloomberg a few days ago about how thailand has almost no options to weaken the Baht, weakening interest rates will have little effect, opening the flood gates and investing heavily in infrastructure would be one way but it takes time. There are so few safe havens where one can still make a profit in the world that Thailand with its huge foreign reserves and relative stability makes it an obvious choice to invest or park money. The article said that the Bahts strength still has a long way to run.
Not this time, I believe....The run has been shaping up to a finish for months now....

Considering a lot have to support the Family as well. It should not be required for Non O base on Marriage.
Finally had enough of all the <deleted> unfolding...Lets see if the wife and families of Marriage Visas, stand up to the government and put a stop to all this rot...Who do you think pays for all the medical requirements already for oneself AND Family?
