Can I rent a condo in Bangkok on a 90-day tourist visa, or do I need a longer visa?

I used Airbnb by the month rather than sign a lease. A bit more expensive but no hassle and no deposit.

You can rent a room in the Sport Hotel Hua Hin for one month or longer. 2 swimming pools. No breakfast included, no room service, gym is there. Was a decade ago 10 thousand per month……rooms with TV, not big, some have view to the sea,

Sure can!❤️

Hotel then you can stay or move around different areas as you feel

Landlords don’t care about a visa, banks should be the same.

You can but more expensive for short term. You are better off renting a hotel room by the month. Saves money

You can rent ANYTHING in Thailand 😉

Yes

2 month +1 month extension which is easy= 3 months.

Thailand won't give Visa if you have ED.

You said you wanna get a feeling, of banging-coc, but how can you, when you have have ED?

You don't need anything but money.

You just have to have your welcome comitte ready for you and picking you up when you arrive.

check the website 9apartment dot com. It contains hundreds of condo rentals in Bangkok

Short term rentals at nice condos are hard to find. The condos with nice pool and gym are going to be 12 month lease. you would also have to set up Wi-fi service, electricity, water. better off to get a hotel for that amount of time that gives a deal for monthly rate. Then you will only have the hotel room rate to pay. the Wi-fi will be included, electricity included, you can run Air Con as much as you want. you get your room cleaned, bed made, garbage removed. Its worth it.

Can do month by month.

Just rent appartments by the month. Google Thai apartment.

You can rent a condo without any Visa.

Yes there are Airbnb condos you can rent monthly, and also hotels & resorts that have monthly rental deals too...

Many hotels offer significant discounts for monthly bookings..

Why wouldn't you stay in a couple of different areas of Bangkok before you decide on a more permanent location?

Try 2 different areas for 5 to 6 weeks each to get a better feeling for the city

I would do a border run Vice getting an ED Visa…

Many condos will have a listing on Airbnb, though some of those listings have minimum stay of 1 or 2 months - sometimes the owner will give you a contract to keep things legal with more than a month stay. Short term under a month will be quite expensive and even with a monthly discount on Airbnb it will still be a lot more than what you can sign up for a year lease if on a long term visa. Many are cheaper than most hotels though.

This is the smartest post I have seen in here! A lot of expats more to foreign countries never having been there or only spending a couple of weeks in high season. Trial run of at least 2 months in off season is a better indicator if it is for you.

My husband and I move every 2-3 months all year, all over the world. The best way to get a short term rental like this is to join a facebook group dedicated to rentals, list your requirements, budget, and the area you are looking for. We have successfully rented in Thailand (Ao Nang) with this method and ZERO deposit. Government rate on Utilities. We paid basically an extra $100 a month over the 6 month rate and $200 over the 12 month rate.

You can find month to month with smaller deposit . Usually they make up the difference by charging above government rate (5b ish) so anything above 5 is profit to the landlord who then pays electricity and keeps the difference. In your contract or agreement so it is legal.

Other , and most will required a 2 month deposit . So if you sign such an agreement and leave after 90 days they will keep your deposit . You must fulfill your year contract and not damage anything to receive your deposit .

I know some short term stays in Pattaya but Bangkok I can’t help. Good trip have fun ,

If you have money there are no restrictions!

Take a hotel room or serviced apartment for a few weeks at first & explore BKK, see which areas suit you. It’s a big city. If you decide you want to live in a certain area, can easily rent a place & move right in. Most are furnished.

Just have to find who rent monthly or more.

People here will be glad to take your money....

Just take a monthly rent at a hotel. They will go deals for longer term stay and use that time to look around, sort you visa etc

there is no 90 day tourist visa, but one for 60 days

There is also apartment hotels as an option. I'd recommend Shama Lake View. Used it often

What tourist visa do you have? I don’t think there is a 3 month visa.

Short term rentals are harder to find and more expensive per month to rent especially for 90 days

You could just do hostels or hotels which would be easier

U can buy as a turis … a condo

The visa you're on completely does not matter. Ideally you would have a valid passport so the landlord can submit a TM30 for you. But if there's a visa or not does not matter.

Yes, no problem at all.

There's no requirement to be on any visa type to rent any property. But the landlord also isn't going to care if you don't have a visa and then you can't get back into Thailand, they're still going to expect you to pay rent or lose your deposit.
