Soon I will enter Thailand with a Non-O multiple entry visa based on retirement, which was issued at The Hague (no E-visa) in november 2021. Is there an insurance needed? If it is, would the Dutch insurance which not mention an amount, but full reimbursement of all costs be enough?

Im in a similar situation, though ive just realised my hotel booking needed to be one with the Test and Go package, i just booked a standard night! But its also taken a week to be able to log in.
Maybe double check that the application is all in order.
If just wish modern life was more complicated.
About the vaccinations; you only uploaded the QR codes or also an other proof of vaccinatition?

Did you check your Junk mail folder to see if it is in there?
Yes I checked. Also can check the status of the application with the code I got, passport number and email address. It tells all the time "reviewing"

I used my Hotmail address and I see some posters say should use gmail . has anyone got their pass using a non gmail account? and should I apply again using gmail
If your email adres is wrong you not get an acess code and online you can check
the status
-
When I check my Thai Pass status with the access code which I got by email,it still shows "reviewing".
What is clever to do (now there are 6 days left until my flight). Just apply for a new Thai pass?. On the 3 pages for vaccination I sent a vaccination proof AND a QR code 3 times. Should only the QR code's be enough/better? Thanks in advance for any suggestions/experience's

@Sjoerd You have titled this thread "Thailand Pass / enter Thailand insurance question" but then your opening post says: "Soon I will enter Thailand with a multiple Non-O visa which probably allows me a stay of 90 days. Do I need an insurance for the full lenght or can 30 days be enough?".
Are you possibly conflating the visa with the Thai Pass?
As I understand it, unless you are entering Thailand as Visa Exempt, you need a visa in order to get the Thai Pass. For both you need insurance, although I'm not clear if the requirements regarding the insurance are the same for both. (Can anyone advise on that, please.)
I started applying on-line for a Non-O Visa, but got stuck on the insurance question:
It specifically talks about a THAI insurer, but I am assured by a friend (who went through the process about 5 months ago) that a UK policy was accepted then.
If a UK policy is OK, I am then faced with the problem of uploading the necessary pages from the policy. Three pages will be necessary to prove I have the insurance required, but the software does not allow more than one file to be uploaded.
I'm wondering what stage you've reached in your application, and if you have had the same problems?
I just mean about the requirements for the Thailand Pass, The visa I gotsome months ago already

Soon I will enter Thailand with a multiple Non-O visa which probably allows me a stay of 90 days. Do I need an insurance for the full lenght or can 30 days be enough? I have a Dutch insurance declaration which covers "full reimbursement of the costs of medical care including Govid 19, but they not want to mention an amount on it.. Are there people who got a Thailand pass with a decleration without a specified amount mentioned or with an insurance which just covered the first 30 days?

Many? I don't think so.
Tourism is as dead as elvis. And anyone who believes what the TAT says at this point and far before this point should have their head examined.
Some quarantaine hotels were fully booked for about 2 months. Example Anantara in Bangkok with 281 rooms... Also many other hotels had many bookings in the next months...yes dead as compare to before the govid
Maybe you missed the change short time ago from 14 days quarantaine into 10 and 7 days after which many people made a booking. However sudden changes are not abnormal in Thailand...but can be a problem as mentioned..
-
The sudden, unexpected change to 14 days quarantaine is a problem for all who made a COE and booking already for 7 or 10 days with hotel booking after 6 may.. Now they have to change everything again... Many people also just would come to Thailand because the quarantaine was shortened.
Second it not seems that the govid is caused by the farang who came to Thailand with a COE and a 7 or 10 days quarantaine..

Just for information it is not Chong Chom that is the crossing about 12km further south and it is closed. Surin Imigration is in Kap Choeng. Get well.
Thank you. You are right. In the title and all other I wrote Kap Choeng, but as mistake I arrived at chong chom

First retirement visa based on a Non-Imm O multiple visa valid until 12-12-2020 and permitted to stay until 14-06-2020.
Documents handed: passport+copy, TM 6 card+copy, copies from passport pages with actual visa's and entry stamps, paper from the bank, electricity + TOT internet bills +copies, rent agreement+copy, some pictures from me dated yesterday frontside my home and showing adress home, copy of birthcertificate my sun. I know more papers then needed...
This morning arrived at 08.35 at Bangkok Bank at Kapchoeng. They made a letter to confirm that I had today over 800.00 THB in my account together with a copie of my bangbook that showed this amount was at least 3 months in my account. I paid 100 Bath.
About 9.00 arrived at immigration chonchom. I was invited to sit outside the office where someone checked my papers. After about half an hour again someone came outside and asked me to sign some papers (the application I filled in I got back) and pay 1.900 bath. On my question of getting also a single re-entry I just had to pay 1000 bath more and 1 picture; no application form.
About 1 hour I had to go inside the office with help of the officer (up and down the stairs with my 2 weeks ago broken hip) and they took a digital picture.
All together the whole process took about 1,5 hour and all the officers where very helpful and even brought me back to and inside my car.

The first extension application is considered as equal to doing a 90 day report.
Now it is clear, thank you again....

It is a report of staying longer than 90 consecutive days. You have not stayed that long without leaving and re-entering the country.
That is correct. It is not clear that immigration will consider the "automatic extension" as a extension of your original non-o visa entry.
The last time I entered Thailand was on 17 march 2020. 14 june will be 90 days staying inside Thailand and 90 days after applying for a retirement visa this week will be about 180 days staying in Thailand without leaving and re-entering I think. What I think wrong?? I hope this is not a problem..

The phone call was correct. The entry date and your permit to stay dates showed that you would not be staying longer than 90 days.
You first 90 day report will be due 90 days from the day you apply for the one year extension of stay based upon retirment.
The fact that I stay then the first time almost 180 days in Thailaqnd without notification, seems not to be a problem as you told. Also read somewhere that you adviced someone to apply for a 1 year extension before the original dat of being allowed to stay in thailand is better then apply in the "amnesty" period; I will do that.
-
This morning I did smoothly a 90 days notification online. I did the notification to be sure later not get any problems.At 5.00 pm I got a call from immigration that I not needed to do a notification. Shortly after I got a mail that my notification was not approved.
Current I am in thailand with a NON IMM O multiple valid until december 2020. The period granted to stay was 90 days ending on 14 June. (will be extended until 31 July by the amnesty rule I think).
This week I will apply for a 1 year retirement visa at Kapchoeng.

There's no doubt some well-meaning local busybody has cherry-picked the bits from the news that they chose to hear regarding foreigners, they complained to the doctor about 'the farang' and the doctor is going through the motions without outright telling you that you are banished for the time being.
For example, I live in Udon city but after the the PM ordered provincial governor's to make contingency plans for a more extensive curfew, we decided to take four bags of our rice out to the mill. The mill is in a village maybe 15 km distant, my brother-in-law lives there and my wife owns some land there. Several years ago, I was the token farang at a local temple ceremony and invited to perform a significant bit of a ceremony. The villagers are friendly, know my wife, family and me. However, when we arrived 'from the city', they looked upon us with suspicion as they sat under their shade tree, mask-less and shoulder to shoulder. We put on our masks and got out of the truck and it was all smiles. We delivered the rice, returning several hours later to collect it, wearing masks regardless of the fact that nobody in the village was. Thus their cocoon of somewhat false security was protected.
Their idea of social isolation isn't the same as government edicts. If you are in the village and they see you every day, you are OK. Even if you are a relative who arrived in the village from Bangkok, you are probably OK. Unfortunately, as the token farang, you are their bogeyman at the moment. Just wear the mask and try and refrain from traveling especially if it is to visit another foreigner. They only have a basic notion of clusters inasmuch that they are uniquely foreign which we know is totally wrong.
Thank you for your comment!. I can follow and find myself in your explanation....

That would be better. Then there was no topic "ordered to stay at home even outside the curfew"...

The doctor is trying to protect you. These restrictions are not all over Thailand, certainly not in the Chiang Rai area. If there is a lockdown in your area, it is probably because it has become a hotspot for COVID-19. If you are elderly, you are even more at risk.
Try to avoid becoming a stubborn old goat.
Already 58....normal had happy life here..You just base your opinion upon me on the letters in this topic; is ok.
The topic: If it had become a hotspot with a lockdown I not had problem at all. I just wonder why told only me yesterday have to stay at home and not told other people near me.As I asked in the first post today. The mask at home I can understand already.

The topic is why someone can lock me at home 24 hours until 15 April without reason; the curfew is 8 hours. Ofcourse I am aware of all risks and live very careful. (And I live alone because the wife died in a bad way by accident..I not choosed for this way of life). Thanks for reply.

He may be privy to possible changes coming, and is giving you a subtle heads up.
He may also know about possible negative views towards foreigners without mask, and may be suggesting that you wear outside of house because of eyes watching.
Thank you. About the mask it is probably as you tell. Just remain unhappy to be locked at home. The strange thing is, he told 3 times just until 15 April.. I know the best is stay at home, but sometimes like to just drive around little bit or visit 1 friend near..

That was not the question. (also I think not have to stay home 24 hours alone, just can visit a friend near, in safe way)...

Now I am living 15 km outside Surin at a home (with 1 ray ground) in a small village around the ricefields.
Yesterday a doctor from the local hospital (anamay) came to tell me that I should stay at my home until 15 April, because there had someone died in Prasat and there are now 6 patients at Surin Hospital. Even outside my home, in my ground, I should wear a mask.
If I need some food I can go to the shop. When entering or leaving the city they will check temperature and the "poeyaj bahn" has to be ok with my reason why I want to go outside the city.
I told him that the 24 hours curfew was not introduced yet and I not had the idea to wear a mask in my ground; all the people in the city also not wear in their ground.
On my question of official documents he just could show an older document concerning the curfew and wearing a mask at street.
He just told that he came to warn me about the new city rule and we all not want to spread the virus...
Now I feel uncomfortable, as locked..without reason (by law).. Even cannot visit some friend in a safe way somewhere..
I JUST WONDER IF ANYBODY HAD ABOUT THE SAME STORY IN HIS CITY??

How to cancel TM 30 online registration account
in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Posted
Some years ago a home/address was registered succesfully for TM 30 online registration. Now the home is in in an other name (chanote) and I tried to register the home again on the new name. This registration failed with a message that the home and address is registered already. I suppose that the old registratin has to be cancelled first, but I not saw an option to do this after login from the first online account.
Is there someone who knows how this can be done?
