Health insurance requirements for Thailand long-stay visas

2 of Thailand’s 6 tracked long-stay visas require health cover. The figures and conditions below are transcribed from the sources listed on each visa page.

Non-Immigrant O-A (Long Stay)

Minimum cover: ฿3,000,000 — total sum insured per policy year, stated as USD 100,000 on the consulate page

  • It must come from a Thai insurer on the official TGIA long-stay list, or from a foreign insurer able to issue the Foreign Insurance Certificate in the format Thai Immigration accepts.
  • The consulate's document list includes the Foreign Insurance Certificate form, signed and stamped by the insurer, so a policy with a high limit but no certificate is incomplete.

Long-Term Resident Visa

Minimum cover: $50,000

  • Health insurance of at least USD 50,000 in coverage.
  • A deposit of USD 100,000 may be used in place of insurance.
