TLDR : Answer Summary
Opening a Kasikorn Bank account with an Education (ED) visa may still be possible, but current conditions are challenging due to recent regulations affecting foreigners. While some commenters confirm that it should be possible, others caution against relying on it given the new hurdles. There have been reports of restrictions, and it is recommended to contact a Kasikorn branch directly for the most accurate information.

Why haven't you gone to a Kasikorn branch and asked there what do you need to open an account?

Don’t count on it.

Right now is the worst time ever, after new rules being implemented.
