Does this include insurances for travel to the EU-countries too?

Have to extend so the wife is covered in preparation for a vacation trip back home.

Yes, their are option for traveling to EU countries - however outside of Thailand you will have to pay and bring the paperwork back to claim.

Depending which country you live, you might have to take out insurance for her Visa.

Yes, so what I'm asking is: are you noted as an approved insurance company for the pupose of getting a VISA to a Schengen-state?

We would like to state we are not an insurance company, we are insurance brokers. However the companies we deal with are approved.

All types of insurance is available to Thaivisa members residing in Thailand and their immediate family (including spouses and dependants).

Interesting. Do you have health insurance that is not linked to a sort of life insurance plan, with terms that don't need to be renewed yearly to avoid paying for longer term illnesses?

The answer to your first question is 'yes' the 2 types of insurance from Thai Visa are stand alone medical insurances.

All policies are 1 year in duration with the following year's premium told to you before the end of the present year's.

That's the problem with all available Thai standalone health insurances - if one of my family members (i have an insurance from the west) would have a problem that is beyond one year, then the Thai insurer can refuse to renew the policy, as far as i understand it, or exclude this particular condition.

We have not to date heard of this happening and would be interested to hear from anyone who has experienced it together with the company name.

Can I switch from my current provider to utilize your service or do I have to wait until my policy expires to sign with you?

The answer your question is yes you can cancel your present insurance and sign with us but, depending on the type of insurance, it may or may not be advisable

why would you have to get isurance (mandatory) for your work permit?

When one works, one has to pay tax and 'social security' is part of this tax - the accountant would explain all.

Im a little uninformed about insurance, I pay 1500 baht each month because of my work permit (mandatory) for some sort of health insurance, is there a way to get rid of that and get yours instead? I certainly dont want to pay for both...

The "insurance" you pay every month for your WP will be for the Gov. security fund and is a very basic cover. Suggest you talk to your accountant for full explanation but am sure you cannot get rid of it.

Best to get the ThaiVisa 'Low Cost' option for extra cover in private hospitals.
