So my Bangkok bank account was finally closed as well.

What have you all been doing about it once it is closed? What other apps have been used for scanning or paying bills? Or what have you all been doing to keep access to baht other than keeping piles of cash on you?

I own a condo and have bills and expenses and a life here to maintain so if anyone has found a good work around this banking debacle I would love to hear it

Hello. Can i buy or pay anything on my credit card. What is the limit? On foreign Credit card?

Anyone here to advise me about the online thailand visa payments

Since today morning i have been trying to make payment but am only getting payment failed.

Am stuck coz I have tried even changing the browsers, repeating application and changing the PC but getting the same message.

Payment Options (w/o Thai Bank account)

This comes up a lot in the comments. Please do add or correct, but this info is correct based upon my own personal experience:

TagThai Pay&Tour

- Prepaid credit card

- Can only be loaded at (I think any) Kasikorn Exchange kiosk. (I did in Samui.) Contrary to some comments I've seen, I was able to do with THB, did not have to actually exchange currency.

- Cannot pay Personal accounts with QR code, so that's most small restaurants and shops out.

TrueMoney

- Top up by cash at any 7-11, Lotus, and various pay points.

- Some people have completed the additional verification by uploading a copy of DTV visa and entry stamp under the work permit section of documents. That then allows payment to personal QR codes.

- It's also handy for paying Electricity and Water. (Keeps the history.)

- I have not been able to top-up by credit card since additional verification, but others claim this is possible.

DeepPocket

- CAN pay personal QR code

Load by credit/debit card, cash at BigC or Lotus.

- Pricier fees than the other two.

- (Was recommended to me by a friend who's an expert in payments, so seems to have solid backers, but I'm not personally endorsing this or anything else.)

* Moreta Pay

- Can connect to US bank, do SEPA transfer, or UK Faster Payments, or credit/debit

- No personal QR codes

- Works in other Asian countries

So much misinformation.

I’m getting my LTR and was wondering if I could pay the 50k fee by QR code, as many said there’s a 5k limit.

Well, I just paid without any problems.

Ofc I had to scan my face, but that’s just a security measure that I love.

Since I live in thailand, my YouTube subscription has been cancelled, as they noticed I was using an european YT plan in thailand.

I tried to subsribe to a thai YouTube plan, but impossible to pay with a foreign payment method.

So what are the options?

Thanks!

Ok with all the lovely info shared by members of this group, got my starter pack ready lol … am I missing anything??

*Charles Schwab debit cards - for zero ATM FEES

*REVOLUT debit card- used mainly in Thailand?

*Wise debit card- main way to make payments without a Thai bank

*International Drivers License-

*DTV printed in A6 format.

*Passport

Am I missing anything ? -

*Health Insurance to be purchased when I arrive

* SIM card- will be purchased at arrival.

So the Washington DC embassy doesn't accept Wise. Anybody know if they accept Revolut? Or which embassies accept Wise?

Thank you everyone. I have a challenge trying to upload Thai E-visa application fee on Worldpay from Nigeria since 48 hours now without success. I have tried using different valid visa and mastercard ATM cards all to null and void. Any useful advice to what I can do to record successful payment?

LTR-WP visa candidates applying from overseas yet planning to collect their visa stamp in Bangkok, here are a few things that might be helpful to you;

- after you get your qualifications approval/endorsement which takes average 4-6 weeks, then you must be in Thailand in order to move your application forward. Don't try to submit any doc if you are not in Thailand yet

- once you arrive Thailand you can easily update/upload all your visa pages, TDAC info and use hotel address. MAKE SURE all empty boxes has a dash - sign, otherwise you won't be able to submit. TM6 should be 00000

- I received immigration pre-approval next day and given a green light to pick the appointment day. Follow the instructions in your BOI account and pick a day and time

- on the day of appointment bring 50,000 baht cash or make sure your money transfer limit in your Thai bank account is at least 50,000 THB for QR code payment. I suggest bring cash. Bring a copy of the 3 page Confirmation of Appointment that you will receive once you choose the date/time. Don't forget your passport and 1 passport/visa style picture.

- I arrived the appointment 15 min earlier, they started my case immediately. The rest is pretty fast, staff do the work while you relax at the lounge area, they bring you a few pages to sign, then LTR staff takes you to the immigration section so you can make your payment, then you get the stamped passport within minutes.

All very smooth process, LTR staff, even the officers at the immigration side treat you very well, I enjoyed very much and finished with a great vegetarian lunch at the food court. Good luck to you all
