ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion focused on the challenges of opening a bank account in Thailand for those on a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV). It was noted that upcoming banking regulations effective June 1 may complicate this process further, especially for those on tourist visas. Some users suggested hiring an agent to facilitate the process for fees ranging from 20,000 to 25,000 baht, but concerns about the legality of such actions were raised. The conversation also contained disputes about the credibility of advice given anonymously.
