Re entry to Thailand on Multiple entry O/A extension with 440000 baht insurance

[Brer]

I recently got my O/A visa based on retirement extended for another year with multiple re-entry

I have a Thai insurance policy for the currently required 440000baht which is valid till March 2023. 
My questions are.
Is my policy good enough to get through immigration when I return?

 

If no do I require a policy stipulating US$50k or possibly US$25k if the government make a rumored change?

 

Is it possible to just get a policy to cover the amount required by the Thai government for example just for a week so I can get back in and then carry on living here?

 

Next year I will can the O/A when it’s expired by leaving and come back on a visa on arrival and just go get non O based on retirement.

Thanks

Your existing insurance would have to include covid 19 in its coverage to use if for entry.

It is $50,000 at this time and then $20,000 of coverage on March 1st and it will only need to be valid for 30 days from the day you enter the country.

Thanks for that my existing policy does include Covid but 440000baht is no where near US$20k.

So only 30 days insurance is all I need and no questions asked by immigration after first 90 day report and stay the remainder of my extension?

You only need to prove the insurance when applying for a Thailand Pass and a check of it when the verity your covid 19 test was done.

Immigration does not check for the covid 19 insurance at any time.
