Yesterday afternoon, I managed to open an account at SCB in the Airport Plaza in Chiang Mai.

It took three attempts, but in the end, it worked out.

First attempt: I asked what was required to open an account. They told me: passport, visa, certificate of residence, and a work permit.

When I pointed out that I didn’t have a work permit, they informed me that an account could be opened with the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) for remote work and a translated employment contract for remote workers.

So, I got that done.

Second attempt: Of course, the information I received the first time wasn’t complete. On the second attempt, they told me I also needed a Thai tax ID.

So before my third attempt, I applied for one at the Revenue Department, explaining that I was on a DTV and intended to stay in Thailand for more than 183 days. They issued the tax ID for me.

Third attempt: With my certificate of residence, translated employment contract (which explicitly stated that I work remotely for my employer from Thailand and will stay for more than 183 days), visa, and tax ID, everything went smoothly and quickly.

Oh, and they didn’t try to sell me any unnecessary insurance!

Hi, after spending 2 months in Thailand, December and January,I tried to get a bank account for my up coming attempt on getting a marriage visa, but 2 months later no bank account, every where I went big city's or small towns they all said no you need a visa, I even showed them the official Thai embassy website saying you need a bank account before you can get a visa and there just looked at me and said no visa no bank, anyway I have heard you can use a HSBC bank account to get a visa, is this true or just more running around catching your tail, thanks sorry if it's a bit long winded but really need advice,

Oh, has anyone actually managed to secure a bank account under DTV yet, or are we still stuck in the delightful era of cash-only transactions? Just checking, you know, for any signs of progress.

Trying to open bank account at 5 different TRB branches, Here is their response

🔹True digital park

They can’t do it. But I was told to do follow up after 2 weeks as the policy has changed.

🔹Onut Bic C Extra

They asked me about my DTV category “when i said workcation , they said no” but it can be done for those under soft power category. You might need some documents from Muay Thai or Cooking school

🔹Siam Paragon

At first the female staff asked my Visa and Passports. After a few minutes, a man (seems to be higher position) asked my employment contract, i gave it to him then he asked me where do i live. When he knows that i live in the another district, he told me to open at the branch of where i live. So if you live in Pratunam , give it a try

🔹Bangkapi Mall

No , asked for work permit 😅

🔹Headoffice

No , asked for work permit 😅.

DTV and Work permit 😅

So for now i’m looking for an agent who can help me to open TTB / KT or SCB. Your recommendation is appreciated
