This isn't a visa question but what are the different ways to fund a K-bank account? I know cash deposits work, but what other options are available?

Hi everyone! Question for fellow DTV visa holders in Thailand 🇹🇭

How are you handling money and daily payments?

Since we can’t open Thai bank accounts (as far as I know), and ATM withdrawals from foreign cards can get expensive, I’m curious what solutions you’ve found for spending, paying locally, or moving money around.

I'm planning to move from Bali in 2–3 months, so I’m trying to get a clear picture of what’s working well for others.

Would also love to hear about any other challenges you’ve faced with the DTV visa... or smart solutions you’ve figured out since arriving.

Appreciate any feedback. Thanks a lot! 🙏

Hi

Thanks

Hello,

Have you ever been asked by an airline on the way to Thailand or at immigration at the airport in Thailand for a bank statement to see if you have enough funds?

800k baht in the bank for retirement.

I know it needs to stay in a few months on both ends, but if you take some out and need to re-deposit, does it again need to come in from my home country? Thx

Unbelievable 6.000.000 vnđ exchange 5400 bath. Careful

What is the best travel card to use in Thailand for foreign currency

Can the retirement visa requirement for a Thai bank account containing 800k THB also be the equivalent sum of Foreign Currency in a Thai Bank account, or must it be in THB only?

Can the ฿20,000 cash proof you may be asked for by immigration when entering Thailand be the equivalent amount in another currency?

Is it better to change cash in my home country or in Thailand?
