scorecard Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Many months ago I checked the covid19.tgia.org website and in the status (list of visa types) I found 'Permanent Resident', which I selected leading to a premium of 1,600 of 1,800Baht (I forget which one). Very reasonable premium. I am a PR holder and I have now finally reached a situation where I can plan my return (from Australia to Thailand) to be mid Dec 2021. Yesterday I rechecked the same website covid19.tgia.org and the specific category of 'Permanent Resident' has disappeared. I called the number on the website 2108 8399 and was told by the person who answered the phone (good English) who was asking questions to another staff member so she could answer me ... "Your category is Long stay O-A, 0-X, STV premium 14,xxxBaht for one year". I was then told that 'one year is the only time period available because your type of vise requires that you must have full cover for the full life of the visa, and health insurance renewed every year to gain renewal of the visa. I tried to explain more but the line cut, call finished. Have any other PR holders who have already returned used this company and did you experience as above? Further, if you used this company do you have an e.mail address for the company that you could share, so I can try to explain that PR holders don't need to have health insurance, plus explain that there is no renewal because PR is issued for lifetime. Or perhaps could you please share the e.mail address they used to send the policy/receipt to you. Alternatively does any PR holder have a suggestion of another reasonable premium insurance company to use? Thanks, much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
