Khao Lak Muay Thai

Cover that knows you came to train.

Two policies the gym can point you to. You buy from the insurer, in your own name.

This is not personal advice. Read the live policy for your age, nationality, and dates.

The gym note

You do not need a policy to walk into the gym. A normal week of pads is not a hospital visit. A private hospital in Thailand is not free. Khao Lak Muay Thai introduces these two products. It does not underwrite them, collect a premium, or tell you that you are covered.

Questions

Before you open a link.

Does Khao Lak Muay Thai sell these policies?

No. Policies are sold by Genki and by True Traveller. You apply in your own name. The gym does not take payment, discount the premium, or place the policy.

Which policy names sparring?

Genki Traveler, as the gym describes it, names training, sparring, other friendly fights, and self-defence. Professional sport is excluded. True Traveller lists Boxing/Muay Thai Boxing (training only) on the Adventure Pack, not on the standard pack. Their public line says training only.

Can I buy cover after I arrive in Thailand?

Genki Traveler can be bought after arrival. If there was no prior cover, a 14-day emergency-only wait applies. True Traveller advertises already-travelling cover. Confirm the current rule on their quote.

Will the gym discount the premium?

No. You pay the insurer's price. A True Traveller link on this site is an affiliate link. Khao Lak Muay Thai may earn a commission if you buy. That commission is not passed on as a discount.
