What agents can assist with opening a Thai bank account on a DTV visa in Thailand?

Next time search the group, before asking a question, that is asked every day.

You are supposed to be on a long term visa to be eligable for a Thai Bank account, DTV is tourist.

Have stayed several months on a permanent adress with a long lease.

Be able to deposit a significant sum every month, from a easy tracable source.

So DTV and a bankaccount isn’t compatible.

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.

Good luck - I’ve been trying with multiple banks and agents over the last 2 weeks you’ll be unbelievably lucky to get one now. Near impossible to get with banks wising up and rejecting most if not all.

Funny the agent who commented after I pinted out is a scam blocked me 😂😂

You may feel free to contact us for consultation if in bkk

@Robert ********

At the moment no banking accounts given at tourist visa.

I second Jack Wilbur's recommendation

Anna Visa is a place to try too

Not gonna happen new regulations the 17th even agents will not try to do it for you

The government has cracked down

Look at agents Facebook pages they say not happening

Anyone saying they can is probably just gonna rob you and say whoops we tried

I recommend you try it yourself where you are first. Go to immigration and get a residence certificate (you will probably also need a TM30 for this) then visit a few banks and ask them.

I have a good contact in pattaya for that service

Have you tried the agents at the bottom of soi 94 for example Anna Visa? I would start with them
