What are the alternatives to solve this that you can’t open a traditional bank account in Thailand?

Do they have neobanks that are easier to open?

I’m a freelancer and I just need to get paid somewhere, right now I have a balance account on the clients platform but that service only is deposit and I need to cash out those money to an Bank who have IBAN and who can give me virtual pay card so I can spend and use my money.

Please give me all tips and tricks. Thanks!

My bank account was closed, of course. I have Thai baht that I need to convert to USD, then send that money to my Charles Schwab account in the US.

I have no idea how to transfer cash like that.

Does anyone know the method? I'm in Chiang Mai.

Thank you!

If you enter on a Non O visa single entry, can you leave Thailand while you are waiting to process the 12 month extension for retirement?

Does the entire 500,000 baht need to be in the same bank account?

I have my money spread across a few bank accounts that are in my name. Will it be ok to show 3 month records of all the bank accounts with the cash in it?

Thanks in advance

I have my interview for my DTV e visa in Vientane on the 12th. Do I need to print off all the documents I submitted online?

Approved through Wash DC

Really appreciate all the information I’ve read here over the months. Soft power was Bangkok Thai Cooking Academy. Their DTV package consisting of 10 classes over 6 months.

I submitted one month of financials because I had seen that’s all Washington DC really required, but they requested the full three months.  Approved the day after I sent them. 

There is no spot for a cover letter when applying, so I added one to the top of my bank statement. 

Then added an additional cover letter when I submitted the rest of the bank statements. 

The whole process was eight days. 

Woohoo!

1 Hour after I sumbitted additional documents to LA, I was approved for soft powered Medical...with non traditional financials....see you soon!

Hi everyone 👋

I currently have around 750,000 THB in my Turkish bank account, and I also receive monthly rental income of about 15,000 THB into the same account.

I’m planning to stay in Thailand for 3 months starting November 15, and then possibly apply for the DTV visa from Vietnam afterward.

Recently, I’ve started getting involved in social media projects, but I don’t have any other active income sources at the moment.

Based on my situation, which DTV category or application plan would you recommend?

Thanks a lot for your help 🙏

Hi everyone,

I know that with the DTV visa we’re required to leave Thailand at least twice a year, before every 180 days. I just want to ask if anyone knows how long we can stay outside the country each time. I might need to return to my home country for 3–4 months to settle some business matters. Would it cause any issues with immigration when I re-enter Thailand after being away that long? Is there any specific rule about this situation for DTV visa holders?

Thanks in advance for your help and time!

I arrived in Thailand about 1 month ago on a 60 day visa exemption stamp. I stayed for 30 days in an Airbnb apartment, and my landlord didn't file a TM30 form. For the next 30 days I will stay in another condo where the landlord is going to file a TM30 form. If I go to the Jomtien immigration office to extend my stay will I be fined 1600 baht for not having a registration at the first place I stayed? Thanks.
