Possibility for retirement visa extension to put 1250k baht on bank ,and can only take out as now 400K , as replacement for that  scam insurance policy

 

I said possibility not forced …. for those already start sending sad emoticon …. it is only a option more , as I assume by next year 1 November the non O  would be on turn for that insurance ….. and it would be an extra option for those in problem for getting insured

There you are, a mandate is being sort.

Very silly indeed. My understanding is the insurance issue will not go any further than currently. If you are on annual extensions to a category 'O'  visa, and you maintain 400k/800k in a bank account in your name, you will not be effected. The intention of the action being taken currently is to eliminate those who cheat the system by using agents to fabricate the existence of funds they do not actually have, hence the setting of a 400k insurance cover requirement.

Thai Visa takes over all Immigration and Insurance functions as posters enforce Draconian Immigration Laws. Thai Visa offers outsourcing services to US UK and Australian Embassies.

The requirements and conditions for an extension of stay for an OA - retirement Visa and an O - retirement Visa are exactly the same.  Except that the OA - retirement category now needs to meet the health-insurance requirement.

As soon as they know how the new insurance criterion affected the holder of the AO visa, they will decide how to deal with the holder of the "O".

Is there such a thing as an AO visa?

I thought it Non OA and Non OX, but this is the second time I see AO being used.

Stupid post. I am married on an O Visa visiting 2-3 times a year (no insurance issues).

Silly statement.

I said it would be applied to 'retirement extensions' too, and TV'ers like you rubished me.

Expats are swapping over to O Visa to avoid the health insurance, even publically talking about how to do it on TV - what do you think they are going to do?  Nail old single expats but let married expats get away with it? 

In the future travel insurance will be compulsory for all Tourists too - but that is some way off.
