  1. Hi I'm 32, Male, 75Kg, non smoker, no prior health conditions, South African. I live in Thailand under a NON-O (Thai child) I've never gotten health insurance before and have no idea what ball park figures I should be looking at. I've seen some plans at like 5000 baht a year and some of what looks to be similar but at 50,000 a year. I understand there are many different configurations but generally speaking is 2500 baht a month for say 10mil baht coverage with no outpatient or dental a normal ball park figure or is it too high. I'm open to recommendations. I have a family, 2 kids and a Thai wife. They got offered similar figures. I'm not looking for anything too fancy, I really just want to be covered if something happens to me and I have to go to hospital. Apologies again. This is new to me. Regards
  2. Hi there, I am currently on a Visa Exempt (30 days left). I have a Thai child (5 years old), mother passed away and I am the sole parent. I am trying to get the Non-Immigrant O Visa (Thai Child) visa, it's my understanding that I have to apply and get the 3 month version first before applying for the 1 year extension. Is it possible to apply for this initial 3 month within Thailand given that I have a month left in the country still? Or do I explicitly have to apply from outside the country (such as Laos)? I have all the required documents and funds (400k in a Thai bank) Thanks for any advice
  3. Howdy, I would like to travel to Vietnam with my family in the next month or so. I'm unsure on the visa requirements for me as a South African passport holder. Some sites say there is visa exemption for all African countries, some say I need to go into an embassy and apply for the tourist visa there. Has any South Africans been to Vietnam recently? What was your process? Thanks
  4. Thanks everyone for your replies. I got in touch with an old agent. They informed that that other than the house book and death cert, new pictures of me and my daughter will be required around the house at least to Pattaya's requirements. So ill be doing that tomorrow. I'm happy knowing that I don't need a completely new visa and that an extension is possible.
  5. My wife passed away earlier this year. I'm currently on a marriage visa that expires end of October. I'm going to assume I can't renew it. I'm 29 years old so retirement visa is out. What other visa options do I have to stay in the country with my Thai daughter? She's 3 years old and me leaving the country right now would mean huge hurdles. I don't have a Thai work permit. All my income is generated in a US bank account. I have 75k a month coming in via international transfer to my Thai bank each month (if this helps). Thanks
