What sort of insurance are you looking for?

I don't know of any companies that insist on work permits for general insurance.

Life insurance might be different.

As madmich said, no work permit is required. Only life insurance requires work permits. This is because it is a financial product.

I have just got a years BUPA health insurance which includes accident cover and I am only on a tourist visa. AIA would only accept me if I had a non-immigrant visa but no mention of work permit.

Think it was 9000B for the year and quite helpful as I have already needed a night stay in hospital for sickness and dehydration which would have cost me 5500Baht itself! smile.png

Hi,

It is true that some companies reject expat's application particularly for PA but, for health ins, work permit is generally not mandatory.

For PA, have you tried AXA?

If form mentioning occupation, you can simply put either "early retirement" or "currently seeking for work".

May I ask which company does bother you about work permit? Sometimes I feel the work permit is treated as their bible!

How did you get BUPA for 9000? PM if you like.

Very simple - check the BUPA premiums e.g. Sapphire / Ruby
