Hi guys,

Will need to travel into Bangkok for work. Travelling in from Singapore.

According to Thailand, travellers from outside of Thailand now need a health insurance policy worth at least 100,000 USD covering medical expenses for COVID-19.

Does anyone know where to get such an insurance? Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you.

The Thai government are a pack of idiots.  There is not such insurance available anywhere.

I have unsuccessfully attempted to find health insurance coverage with $100,000 coverage. I agree I don't think there is such a product. This intransigence on the part of Thai immigration officials will surely harm the recovery of the Thai international tourism industry.
