For your reference - I was able to open account at ttb Bank.
Following documents were requested:
- Passport
- Thai Driving License
- E-Visa
- Translated Working Contract from Homecountry
- Lease Agreement
- Certificate of Residence
- Tabien Baan Copy with signature from my landlord
I think these are the general requirements of the bank, which should apply to any branch. So you can just walk in any branch, in case they haven’t heard about DTV just tell them to call their headquarter for more information.
Hello, I am looking to open a bank account on a DTV visa - can anyone recommend a good agent that's not charging something like 25k for their services? 🙏
About to get a bank account, i know that is not easy if holding DTV, a lot of contradictory comments. My situation is a little bit different because i hold DTV but at same time I'm married with Thai woman. Then, will be more esay for me to obtains account in a Thai bank?
I’ve been reading numerous posts about how you need a Thai Bank Account for the Retirement Visa. I see that Citibank has offices and branches in Thailand. If I have a Citibank account, would that be acceptable? TIA!
Hi all.. i need a little help from ex pats from uk.
Im currently in the uk , travelling on 9th may to basically spend most of my time in thailand on a marriage visa, my marriage visa just expired, so i have to re apply, no problem there.
The issue i have is my bank, santander, theyve gave me a nightmare whilst in thailand the last year. Theyre telling me i have to report to them every 90 days, they actually froze my account last year and i dont want the same hassle i had again.
So im asking if anyone can recommend a bank in the uk i can use, fully closing my santander accounts.
If you want to open a bank account it is very straight forward. Got to an immigration office and apply for a certificate of residence, after providing the relevant documents they will then ask you which bank you want to open an account with and they will provide a letter.
Don’t use an agent, don’t listen to everyone saying it’s impossible, it’s easy you just need the correct paperwork.
Banks are very happy to accommodate you when you provide the required documents.
