I'm currently in Koh Lanta and am trying to open a bank account with a Workcation DTV and all banks refused. Any advice?

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.

Hi im looking for some information on opening a bank account. I have my DTV visa already. Ive had 1 quote for 19k baht just to open a bank account. Does anyone know where i can open an account cheaper?

Any suggestions on what bank to go with under the DTV? Do you get a bank card instantly? (I’m only in khon kaen for 1-2 days).

Right now I’m in isan but I’ll probably eventually move to Pattaya. Should I wait and open the account in Pattaya or just do it today in isan?

Banks? I live in Karon Beach. I just received my. Non-O immigrant visa. Next is to open a bank account. I assume it probably would be a branch in Patong.

Do people have a Bank to recommend?

Bangkok ? Kasikorn?

Here's the list of documents required for opening a new account using DTV which was given by the bank(TTB). They need a printout of everything mentioned here. I'm yet to do it. Just posting it here as a reference material.

Any recent success stories with opening a bank account on the DTV?
