kalynkya Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 To clarify the situation, are there no insurances that cover asymptomatic cases? And you can't choose to quarantine in our hotel or home? Is this the situation? Are we helpless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyscot Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) is it still a requirement to have separate covid travel cover for entry, even if I have long stay insurance cover which includes cover for covid related issues, Edited February 16, 2022 by jonnyscot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General health insurance is sufficient, but it must explicitly state that covid is covered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there are several that still cover asymptomatic. On 2/16/2022 at 6:26 PM, kalynkya said: And you can't choose to quarantine in our hotel or home? Typically, if you are returning on a visa or an extension, you will have a registered home address and you would be likely be allowed to self-isolate there with your local orbortor health authority advised and checking on you. If you are a Tourist, effectively with no fixed abode, the hospitel seems more likely. However, I have been told of some people who tested +ve during their 5th-day re-test were allowed to self-isolate at the same hotel at a reduced rate and none of this alleged "10,000 baht a day" charges.

Heng Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Since there are no insurance requirements for returning Thai tourists, I assume we are immune from the "scam?" What happens to Thais who test positive in day 1 test and go? (I do have Covid insurance; but I'm assuming they'd just charge whatever treatment to the 'local gold card' health plan).
