May I know recommended best travel agent in Bangkok the goal to open a thai bank acc

I went to 10+ branches they all refused me cause on a tourist visa

(US citizen) Wondering if i'll possibly have issues getting to thailand

I was in thailand for 86 days with visa extended from march till june 5th and have since been in malaysia.

My friends have planned a 4 day trip to krabi and I'm going but have only booked one way as im unsure if i'd like to go to somewhere like koh lipe or langkawi. Even though this trip wont last more than 10 days im wondering if I realistically could have problems and need to book a way out.

Thanks!

Is it possible to open a bank account with just a Non-B visa? I’ve recently accepted a teaching job, and while I already have my Non-B visa, I’m still waiting for my work permit to be issued

Thailand looking to make changes with IDP to 2 year license. Will have to take written test if this passed and cant use IDP to bypass it anymore

Are all foreign companies in Thailand under Board Of Investment? Apperantly this board has a rule that foreigners without 2 years work experience cannot join a company, but in this case what if we are freshers? Freshmen arent allowed to join international companies at all if they don't have prior experience?

Long story short, my company (international company) I did an internship with tried to offer me a job but since Im a fresh grad the board of investment wont let me join. So I was wondering are all international companies in Thailand operating under this Board? How does it work?

Hi there,

This is a question for people who have applied for DTV in the US. Have any of you shown the cash needed ($15k USD) in a brokerage account? Not as stocks and investments. But the cash amount.

I have a high yielding brokerage account, so want to put the money there, just not sure if that will be alright.

If anyone has experience showing cash in their brokerage account, please let me know.

Thanks!

Just an update on successful entering with DTV for the second time at Chiang Mai international.

I entered first time on DTV through Suvarnabhumi airport in January.

Left from CNX after a 5 month stay for a 2 week trip to China.

Arrived last night at CNX, while queuing an immigration officer raised her hand and said “DTV” toward the supervisor for another person entering on DTV. The supervising officer who was controlling the line just waved like it was ok.

When I went up to the immigration officer (not the same one that asked the supervisor) he only asked what I was doing in Thailand and I said “workcation, I work online and live in Thailand”. He smiled and handed back my passport with 180 day DTV stamp.

Additional info: Australian passport holder applied for DTV at Sydney consulate.

Hi! Just wondering if anyone returj flight is needed when coming out to Thailand with the DTV visa? I've not seen this anywhere but a friend who lives in Thailand said they needed a return flight to their home incase they get rejected and have to go back?

If anyone can help that would be much appreciated

Hello everyone,

Quick question cause I’m a bit confused. Been living in Thailand for a while now and we’re used to the 90-day report process.

Last time we travelled out of Thailand was in Dec 2024, did our 90-day at Chaengwattana in March 2025 and only travelled to an island in Thailand in April.

We tried doing our 90-days report online and it was rejected under the reason “For first-time requests of a 90-day notification in each country visit, in-person presentation at the immigration office is required.”

Do they now consider travelling outside of your region travelling outside Thailand?

Thanks!
