So it seems some TTB branches in Bangkok can open accounts for DTV holders, particularly DTV holders who work remotely! I can't confirm for the other category of DTV. They showed me a list of 4 items required, of which I was missing just one, which I've attached here. The other items are

1. Passport + DTV stamp inside

2. other ID from your country (license or ID card)

3. DTV proof like letter from employer/ employment contract/

4. The attached image - that's what I didn't have. What is that? It's related to residence though. They didn't care about my TM30.

Hi i am planning on moving over to thailand on non "o" 90 day visa then non"o"retirement visa in the future, my question is can i have two bank accounts in thailand(one with money in for retirement application 800,000 thb or above and just leave that account just for visa extentsions, just to be safe and dont need to touch) and another for day to day spending and bills etc.

i already have a thai bank account with Bangkok bank.

thanks
