If you have a multiple entry non-o visa you only need the covid 19 insurance for 90 days.

Is that a Non O visa based on marriage obtained at a Thai Embassy, or an extension of stay based on marriage from an Immigration office.

Only 90 day Covid Insurance required then as UJ stated.

 

Whether single or multi entry, the Non O only permits a stay of 90 days regardless.

A visa cannot be extended.

You can extend the 90 day entry for one year. You would need 400k baht in a Thai bank for two month or proof of 40k bath income.

Or you can get a 60 day extension to visit your wife.

If available you could also apply for a 60 day covid 19 extension.

If your intention is to stay long term you should apply for a 1 year extension of the 90 day permission of stay granted at entry. Financial requirements for the 1 year extension are 400K THB deposited in a Thai bank for 2 months prior to the date of application, or 2 x 40K overseas transfers into a Thai bank.

 

If your other than a US, UK, or Australian national, you can also obtain an 'Embassy Income' letter as an alternative of proof of income.

No, you can get another 365 days.

Financial proof required, read my previous post.

Make sure your policy covers asymptomatic cases. There are reports that when people without symptoms are tested positive in ASQ and transferred to the attached hospitals, some insurers refuse to pay.

I am just now applying for the COE and since I have got an Non-Imm O visa I bought insurance for 90 days. However I also enclosed an airline ticket showing a return trip after 10 months. My COE was denied on the grounds that my insurance must cover the whole period of stay. The options I was given was to change airline ticket or the insured period.

 

The big question which I like to have an answer to is if I should travel en a one-way ticket, what insurance cover would they ask for? One year?

I obtained my CoE on a Non-O married multi visa and a one way ticket. Insurance was 90 days.

I guess if you arrive on a visa exempt, you will now need 45 days insurance?
