Any Thai Covid Insurance for Foreigner? (no work permit, not lived here 6+ months).

[Magnus Gunnarsson]

Hello Everyone,

 

Does anyone know of a Thai Covid Insurance that will cover Foreigners living in Thailand?

I am on a Non-O Marriage Visa that requires me to leave the country every 90 days. Therefore I am never here for consegutive 6 months.

And it seems that most of the Insurances that I am looking at do require me to have a work permit or that I have stayed here 6+months consecutively (Frank, Rabbit, Banks).

 

FYI: I do NOT have a work permit. And I do NOT have a global health insurance that covers Covid. I Do have the Yellow book and Thai Pink ID-Card.

I don’t understand why anyone would care about a work permit for insurance? How is that in any way relevant?

Dhipaya Insurance is the only one I know that doesn't have the WP requirement. Although it states 6-months minimum, maybe they won't argue about the few days outside the country every 3 months if the bulk of the 6-months has been in-country? Better to check though.

Where does it state six months minimum? I bought the Dhipaya policy from the Frank website, which asked me a number of questions but nothing about length of stay in Thailand.

I see it in the disclaimer now on the website but I'm pretty sure it wasn't there when I bought it. Anyway, I've been given an insurance number now and I believe the hospital will be paid directly.
