As a DTV holder you are not eligable for a Thai bankaccount, so you should change your visa to a genuine long term visa, if a Thai bankaccount is important for you.

Banks in Thailand are like everywhere in the world, interested in having good stable custormers, that have a permanent address, a steady easy traceable income, and use the account all year round.

That is why the banks are reluctant to give accounts to people on short time ( read: tourist ) visas, and who only spend part of the year in Thailand.

Don’t expect to get a residence certificat, until you have stayed at a permanent adress in at least 3 month, since that is what the residence certificat should confirm.

Furthermore the added attention on whitewashing of money, is an added burden on the banks, so reluctant depositing large amounts isn’t a guaranteed way to open an account.

The value of a resident certificat, had gone down, since Immigration Officers are giving them to people that are not on a longterm visa, or have stayed severel months at 1 adress in Thailand, so even if it is a formal requirement, the bank make up their own assesment of the stability of the want-to-be customer.

Be aware there is a error in the start of the article ( and several other copy - paste media with the same article )

A Thai Bankaccount has never been a requirement to get DTV, on the contrary it has been one of the big advantage over other visa, that you could get DTV as long as you could show 500.000 Baht equivalent in any bank anywhere in the world.

It has never been the intention that DTV visaholders should be in need of a Thai bankaccount.

Most banks will want you to go to immigration office and get a residency certificate. Not very complicated.

It’s easy but can also be expensive

It's very difficult now

It’s harder now with all the new rules and regulations…if you just to open an acct for the QR code payment you can do a pre-paid acct through K-Bank…

Try green bank

Take a thai speaking person with you and open your account with a large amount

@Adam *******

head to Pattaya for an agent. I can give agencies if requirex

I came in on a O Visa about 3 months ago and had no trouble whatsoever opening a Bangkok bank account without an agent Not sure if DTV has different rules. Beware of the vulture's😂

If you are here on a tourist visa. Why do you need a bank account

Use the agent

Technically DTV is a tourist visa and therefore not easy to open a bank account even with an agent.

How much are you offering in return?
