Can I open a bank account in Thailand during my visit or do I need a permanent address?
I am planning on visiting Pattaya on March 28 to April 16. I very much like to open up a bank account in Thailand. My plans are to move there in the near future.
Answer summary
A user plans to visit Pattaya and is interested in opening a bank account. Comments suggest that opening a bank account as a tourist is not possible without a permanent address in Thailand. Some recommend hiring an agent to navigate the process, especially if the user intends to live in Thailand in the future.

Probably worth paying an agent to do it for you if you are definitely coming to live here soon.
It's the most challenging part of the visa process.

Forget about opening a bankaccount for a couple of weeks holiday.
When you have a permanent adress in Thailand, then it will be possibel.
