Good day everyone

After spending many hours on here reading about visas ,I’m still confused

I would like to open a Thai Bank account am I correct in thinking that without a visa this is not possible

Entry stamp won’t cut it

What visa will allow me to open an account

Thanks in advance

I have a quick question for those who've gotten this visa- can you set up a bank account in Thailand, on the DTV visa?

Also, can one set up a Wise account from Thailand?

Does anyone know of a bank in Sungai Kolok that will open an account for someone on visa exempt / Tourist visa entry? I've tried Bangkok Bank, Kasikorn and Krungthai. Alternatively can someone recommend a visa agent in Sungai Kolok?

Thanks.

yes I've searched the archives and they quickly age and become less relevant. Same old question re: bank account opening and or finding an affordable agent. I got one quote from agent to get visa for 70000 baht, which isn't going to happen. I've been in Thailand about two months and have received an extension on my 30 day and bounced to vietnam coming back New Years eve.

Anyone know a KBank where I can open account on a 90 day O visa,

I’m in Bangkok at the moment but will be going Phuket and north Thailand. I heard some are less stringent than others?

I believe I have a few other things in my favour, as I have a married certificate that might help but only photocopy not original. Also Thai driving licence and Bangkok bank account.
