SurinMel

I'm returning to Thailand soon with my Thai wife for  5 months. Despite a letter from a company I own guaranteeing $100,000 Covid coverage, we are being required to purchase a Thai insurance policy for this. The only price I've found so far is 20,000 THB from Luma. A total waste of money better spent employing people in our Isaan village.

I've tried to find a comparison of policies and costs, to no avail. Apparently there are 16 approved Thai insurance companies.

I have my first year retirement visa, and will need to renew in January 2020. I will be in Rattanaburi, Surin, about an hour from Surin City, but 6 hours from Bangkok. 

I'll be building a house on my Thai wife's land near Rattanaburi, and prefer to spend as little time in Bangkok as possible, due to the nasty air pollution these days.

I have my Bangkok Bank account with the requisite money on deposit. I'm having trouble determining if and where I can renew my visa in Surin Province.
