Where can I open a bank account as a freelancer living in Thailand?

WHOA 😳... FRANKLY, I have the same question...

@ **************

s and other members are trying to be helpful to you. We really don't know what you have been doing in recent years regarding your banking situation and receipt of fees for your services as a DIGITAL NOMAD. The Thai Embassy or Consulate where you apply for the DTV visa are going to ask you for your recent bank account balance and statements for 3 to 6 months. With a balance of 500,000 Thai baht or more for the most recent bank account statement or possibly for 3 MONTHS vs one. The requirements vary among the Thai Embassys or Consulates... so it's important to read their website to see what their requirements are for the bank account balance and statements required to be submitted.

We're here to help you 😌

ThoughtfulLychee5096 it's not nonsense comment. What is the reason you can't continue doing what you have been doing? Because that's the solution to your problem

@Matthew *********

I didn't ask anything..he is the one asking.. everything being asked and said are already here..not sure what is the purpose of your post

Anonymous participant 142 the OP said he/she doesnt have ANY active usable account in any country in the world not just passport. I have no idea why so many of your kind have reading comprehension or logic problem.. do you live your entire life scavenging for food and lodging, mouth to mouth? It is unusual but maybe not to you..so, how many percentages of people are like you that allow me to use the term "unusual" ? Care to enlighten me?

ThoughtfulLychee5096 you need a TIN if you bring earned income into Thailand anyway

ThoughtfulLychee5096 You need to register yourself as a sole proprietor in your home country which would give you a business tax number. Basically you're just asking this forum how to avoid paying taxes.

@Alex ********

you dont need to explain yourself to some idiiot on fb. 1/ who is he to ask, the police? 2/ its not illegal to not have a bank account. 3/ why does he care if you don't have a bank account? 4/ he says with authority but he's a nosey guy on fb sticking his nose in. 5/ its nothing to do with the question you asked. Just tell him to f!@%off!!!! Good luck with your account.

@Alex ********

the OP said he doesnt have a single usable active account anywhere in the world

Yes you can't get a personal account without being a resident. But your company will always be a resident and respect tax residency rules for where the company is located

Look up ATHENASIA for an agency that specifically deals with setting up hong Kong companies
