That someone was me.

I simply stated the text from the CoE requirements as posted on the Thai Embassy/Consulate websites.  It reads > Health Insurance Policy with the coverage of medical treatment in Thailand, including COVID-19 treatment, in the minimum amount of 100,000 USD or equivalent

Imo this cannot be misunderstood and a covid-19 only policy as offered by TGIA is therefore to be regarded as an 'extra' you need when your regular +100.000 US $ insurance for medical treatmnt in Thailand does not cover covid-19.

HOWEVER, there have been reports of applications being accepted by the Thai Embassy with only that covid-19 specific insurance.

So it seems that some Thai Embassies/Consulates do not enforce their own published requirements re that covid-19 insurance being included or supplemental to an insurance policy with coverage of 100.000 US $ medical treatment in Thailand.

@MAF666 > Was your application accepted with that TGIA covid-19 insurance only? 

Yes.

The only insurance that I have is the one selected from the Thai Embassy site in Canberra.

It was processed and accepted with the COE application in minutes.

I have just been granted a CoE for travel from Sydney to Bangkok.

So looking forward to 15 days ASQ in Bangkok from Monday...

The Thai Consulate website in your country should give you insurance options real time.

I chose thb14500 for 12 months covid insurance, everything went through perfectly. 

Just do it.

The process went smoothly with this option.

True.

With an alternate registration you could stay in Thailand for 6 months at a time with a run to Malaysia and return.

A live aboard boat has the infrastructure baked in for off grid life.

We lived on a yacht in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore  for a number of years.

There are unlimited anchorages in the most sublime locations that you can imagine.

You need to be able to move around for seasonal changes, too much attention, visa runs etc.

Go check out boats for sale in Langkawi.
