Hey guys current situation:

German national.

I am on Koh Samui.

I am on MTEV, have to leave the kingdom on 25.03.20.

I just got married to Thai national.

I wanted to apply for non o, but they need proof of income (I have money, but NOT on Thai account)

Bank doesn't want me to open account because I need non-o or work permit.

Due to the current situation I would rather not leave the country (afraid of not getting back in)

Any ideas?

Something missing?

Thanks ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

1. What's your nationality?

2. You can open a bank account on any visa; talk to you wife about it.

If you don't want to leave, you can apply for an extension of stay based on visiting family, which is good for 60 days for 1,900THB.
