Want to open Thai bank account this May to put in funds to apply for retirement 1 year extension.

Got non immigrant o visa. Uk passport. Proof of address UK

Going to stay at same hotel in Pattaya I stayed for over 3 months left March .I

kept receipts.

Will pay for one month and will be staying there first 3 months.

I will get copy of TM 30.

Will this be enough to get me a residence permit from the immigration office in Jomtien ?

I have been there before to get a 30 day extension.

Do I just join the queue to try to get residence permit or is there a separate section at the immigration centre who deal with this matter? Any advice appreciated.

Trying to avoid using an agent.

On February 11, I received a large DTV

So on May 11, I have to report to the embassy.

What documents should I prepare?

If I live in Pattaya, should I report, or do you think in Bangkok?

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?

Been here nearly 6 month so getting close to doing my first border run. Has anyone done an organised minivan border run from pattaya for there next 180 days yet?

I messaged a local agent asking if how much for a border run, they replied 3800baht for 60 days, I replied I had the dtv so would automatically get 180 days to which they replied oh the price is 5800 baht, when I asked why they said its because you get more days, I asked why that matters it's the same distance your taking me and there's no extra cost to you. Your getting more days so you pay more was the reply! Gotta love Thailand, always a way of them getting a few extra baht when they can!!

Edit. I do have a car, just dont fancy doing the trip on my own and getting stuck on the cambodian side if for any reason i dont get back in 🙄
