Re: New Changes for Entry to the Kingdom
Can you provide me with a couple of Thai Insurance Companies who DO give the coverage for someone between age 77 and 80 years old...Thanks
Re: New Changes for Entry to the Kingdom
The list of insurers seems fine; indeed, I ran a test through one of them and was accepted despite my age. I suggest people try for themselves.

The link you have provided is not for insurance for inbound travellers that will meet the requirements of the Thailand Pass

I too did a dummy application.
Ok up to 75 year old for up up 90 days.
After 75 only one would cover more than 30 days, so very limited indeed.
The one which would cover someone over 75 for a 90 day visit was a US company who wanted US700.
Anyone have any other ideas?

Fake ID? It's pretty easy to come by on the dark net.

My figures are based on the site https://www.tipinsure.com/CovidRegional/step_3/ where I ended up and simply verified it would insure a 77 year old (my friends’s age). I was disappointed but not surprised at the attempts to “upsell” for other elements of standard travel insurance along the way from the link francois kindly provided. My main point is that if you’re an older traveller Thailand insurers just aren’t interested which is similar to recent Thai government announcements about the type of travellers or long-stay foreigners they mostly value. My friend has pointed out and I think I remarked that Singapore which demands a similar level of cover has better and cheaper policies readily available. Cambodia used to demand an inwards COVID insurance policy but has dropped that demand altogether
Maybe the whole insurance element of Thailand Pass will eventually atrophy over the next, but for the moment it’s just another example of the TAT slogan (beloved by us all) “Amazing Thailand”
