ORIGINAL POSTERHello, everyone!
There are a lot of reports of people not being able to open a bank account now even on non-o marriage visas.
Anyone had experience opening bank account with non-o marriage visa recently?
I don't understand how we are supposed to do our 1-year extension if they refuse us to open a bank account.

TLDR : Answer Summary
Many expats are facing difficulties opening bank accounts in Thailand with a Non-O marriage visa. Experiences shared by users indicate mixed results, with some successfully opening accounts while others report being denied due to varying requirements from different banks. It is suggested that obtaining assistance from an agency or having a Thai spouse communicate with bank staff may facilitate the process. The general consensus is that knowledge of current banking requirements and potentially providing more documentation can improve chances of success. Users share firsthand experiences, emphasizing the importance of location and the bank's understanding of foreigner's situations.

Fact is, you can get a Thai bank account opened on ANY Non-Imm visaclass
However, what we get reported is, most bank staff have no idea what to do if the applicant is a foreigner. They will dream up random requirements so they avoid to tell you they don’t know. It’s all about “face saving”
That’s why I suggest before you try that by yourself, let an agent help you. Moving to a more touristic area also helps -so you should plan to set up residence in Pattaya for a few days
It should cost around 5000 THB to get a bank account opened by an agent, at least that's the price in Pattaya
The most basic requirements from banks are:
*** a printed-out Non-Imm-O Visa Type or the Extension of the Stay permit out of it
*** a Thai mobile phone number with a SIM-card registered in the name of the account applicant (receipt from the phone shop)
*** a certificate of residence from Immigration which you can pick up if you are properly registered per TM30 in your accommodation
You DON’T NEED:
***a yellow housebook
*** a marriage certificate
*** the birth certificate of your grandmother
*** your drivers licence
What you CAN’T DO:
*** there is no bank account opening possible for people on touristic visa (DTV included) or visa-exempt entries
Good Luck, go ahead, book an agent service, and by the evening you will have a Thai bank account

It doesn't really matter what YOU think they require! You either provide what they ask for or go elsewhere and/or use an agent like you say.Nongnuch ********
@Ron *****
my point was that your drivers licence, your rental contract or your grandmother's birthday HAS TO BE irrelevant to a bank. It is absolutely incompetent from a bank clerk to ask you for these things. What's needed by 99.9% of all Thai banks is your long-term stay permit extension (which can be your Non-Imm Family extension ) or your Non-Imm-visa class (can be your 90-days retirement or marriage visa), a certificate of residency from your Immigration and your Thai mobile number. All other required things are those dreamed up by incompentent clerksRon ******

If someone is on a 90-day non-o based on marriage.. it makes sense to go to your wife's bank and get her to explain the need.. and perhaps plant the seed that you will eventually be transferring chunks of your overseas wealth into said account.. at the same time enquiring if they have a health insurance policy you might consider when yours is up for renewal.. show them some potential for 'business' in return for their assistance and they may be more helpful.. regardless of your future intentions.. you need to 'play the game' to give them some encouragement 😉

@Ally ***********
No health insurance needed (family are Thai nationals), no word about transferring the funds. The funds are my business when the renewal (extension) time comes up.We are actually permanent residents in Japan, our home is there. The daughter is also an Australian citizen, full time student in Australia, Medicare. We plan to live in Bangkok 6 months a year, to avoid Japanese winter.

Opened with Kasikorn in Big C Nakhon Phanom a couple of weeks ago. Passport, Non-Imm O visa, foreign marriage certificate translated and legalized, yellow book (we own our own home), wife's blue book and ID card. Think that was about it. If you're renting take your rental agreement, residency certificate. If you have a Thai driver licence that'll help. The more you can bombard them with the better, they'll likely photocopy everything you offer whether they need it or not. Not much else you can do really short of using an agent if you're in one of the main areas.

Had the same problem 1 year ago managed to get one with krungsi had all documentation many branches just said no straight out and one bank they had the passbook and card already to give me I had paid the deposit to open account and a lady came out and said the manager said I could not get the account anyway I got one now hope you all find a solution
Lee *************
Yep its very hard, my wife wouldn't take no for an answer, the branch managers are unable to make a decision and leave it up to head office in Bangkok. It can be done but you will need to shop around and have a wife that knows how to sort them out.

I managed to get one on a non o 90 day in June. Three say no krungsri say yes. Definitely getting harder so god knows how meant to get extension as cannot satisfy immigrations bank requirements.
Something or someone has to give or will be forced to always pay agent high prices which will get even higher as demand gets greater.
I wonder if Thai govt know the position to get expats to stay ia actually becoming impossible as banks and immigration dail to work together apparently

There is lots of people posting absolute rubbish about the current banking situation. Opening a bank account on a Non-O is no more difficult now than it was in previous years. Yes people have issues, trying to open an account in Nakhon Nowhere is going to more difficult than in a tourist area. All the people reporting problems have not supplied any facts regarding the documentation the banks are asking for. Every list I have seen requires a long stay visa. Not a single report that a branch requires you to be on an extension of stay in order to open an account. If someone has such evidence please post it.

you’re talking out of your arse. In the last 7 days I visited numerous branches of both SCB and Kasikorn. I had with me, COR, Non O initial 90day visa, copies of passport. Utility bill, rental lease.
They insisted I needed to be married to a Thai national in order to be even considered for a bank account. My Thai Fiancé asked what the problem is. The staff from three banks told us that the previous week local banks held staff meetings where the issue from Pattaya and Chinese launder accounts was discussed. The direction to ALL staff at ALL these banks was to not open accounts to foreigners unless either on marriage visas or in possession of yellow house book.
Now I’ll caveat that with the area as I know your comeback will be try other reasons and I agree. It was In Phitsanulok and Phetchabun.
Yes it will be easier in places like Pattaya and Bangkok but the point is those banks staff all told us that it has all changed in the last 2 weeks with regards to opening bank accounts for foreigners. They think it will settle down again once the fallout becomes clear.
BUT
To accuse people of speaking rubbish is just both wrong and unhelpful. Most People have been telling of THEIR personal experiences in their areas which is exactly what this group is for. Up to date on the ground real time information, not the thoughts of people who are settled for a while who sorted themselves when things were so much easier.

spoke with bank staff from several banks last week regarding the problem. 2 weeks ago , in many areas, banks were having staff meetings as a result of the Pattaya fraud accounts. They were instructed not to open accounts from foreigners unless either married or in receipt of a yellow house book. That was Kasikorn and SCB. admittedly some of the more expat areas it’ll be easier but staff in those banks we went to told us that it has all changed for them within the last week. Took me three days but I finally opened with Krungthai. This in the Phetchabun/phitsanulok areas.

On any Non-Imm visa class you can get a Thai bank account opened
Many bank staff but have no idea what to do if the applicant is a foreigner, and will dream up random requirements so they avoid to tell you they don’t know. It’s all about “face saving”-
That’s why I suggest before you try that by yourself, let an agent help you.
It should cost around 5000 THB to get a bank account opened by an agent, at least that's the price in Pattaya

your area is non-touristic, that's why all these bank staff didn't have any clue. In Pattaya, if you have entered on any Non-Imm visaclass, it's possible to get a bank account opened. If you want to do it seamlessly, just use an agent, it costs 5000 THBDavid *******
@Greg **********
avoid the agents if at all possible. Don't fuel the corruption industry. Banks will open accounts against 90 day non O visas. That's the purpose of 90 day non O. 60 days 800k balance then 4 weeks to obtain one year extension. Ask yourself why Vietnam has none of the "financial requirements" specified for Thai visas? Money money money. The thai obsession.Sue **********

@David ******
but therein lies the problem. Many of us are now finding that banks are refusing to open accounts for someone on a non O retirement visa!! Even when explained the need for the 800k for extension of stay they still refused. We were told it’s due to the fall out of the Pattaya Chinese laundering accounts. So whilst it’s possible it’s much more difficultReply to

On a proper long term visa,when meeting the requirements, you can open a bank account. A 90-days non-O is not a long term visa.This is a major problem for people about to apply for a 1 year extension.

@Max ************
a 90-days Non-Imm-O visa is regarded a "long term" visa, as it allows you to change it into a "1-year Extended Stay Permit". You have ALWAYS been able to get a bank account opened on this visa, and it STILL IS POSSIBLE. You need a Thai mobile number and a certificate of residence from Immgration besides the printed out E-VisaMax *************

You're as always reading to fast. Many bank branches do NOT consider a 90 days non-O to be a long term visa. That's the problem even if the person applying for a bank account is about to apply for a 1 year extension later.Get it? It's a catch-22 for many people at the moment.Nongnuch ********

you are wrong, wrong, wrong . . . . . no, it is not a Catch22 situation.

Not tomorrow yet. 😛 However, I answered this while sleep deprived and didn't read things through properly.
I am already on a extension of stay based on marriage, and I have a account from before. Just want to open another one for saving.
But the required documents for me will be the residence certificate, my marriage certificate ( I got married in Thailand, foreign marriage documents will probably require a bit more ) and my passport.
Kasikorn in Cha Am.
I will try to remember to ask them how to proceed if one does not already have the extension of stay.
