Health insurance for re-entry into Thailand - duration

[jerry499]

Hi everybody, I am currently overseas and plan to return to Thailand in few weeks time. I am on a Non-O visa that had been extended multiple times based on marriage to a Thai national.

 

My current permission to stay expires in early July 2022, but since I live in Thailand, I will renew it and continue living there.

 

I understand that I will need to buy health insurance, but I am not clear for how long. Would buying health insurance until the end of my current permission to stay be sufficient to gain entry into Thailand?

 

Many thanks for your help.

You will only need 30 days of covid 19 insurance.

When you register for the Thailand Pass select returning to Thailand for the reason for entry.

As already stated above..

Covid 10k cover for period of 30 days.

Choose the cheapest throw away policy. Think one available for 650baht.

Theres a great comparison / information page here:
 

Also tomorrow we will update this page to include MSIG's new low-cost policy (which does not have restrictions like FWD's). 

The new policy is around 660 THB to 1100 THB (and price is also not based on age).

FWD is still a great option if you're just looking for a policy to meet the minimum requirements, but can be troublesome if you do not meet the 14 Day leadtime / 72 hour RT-PCR rule.
