is there anyone get face scan in scb bank?When we go to bank they ask current visa or not?I am asking because i dont want to update anything.But in the future i can change my phone so i need face scan.Anyone knows they want NON O visa or not for update.Btw i opened my account 13 years ago with my ED visa.But now have tourist visa.
I have the DTV visa. I'm trying to open a TrueMoney account on my phone.
It seems that TrueMoney is blocking foreigner registrations. When you click "scan passport" it fails. But when you click "scan local Thai ID card" it works without issue.
I just had my DTV revoked . originally it was paid for by my employer but I stopped working for them and they wrote to embassy to inform them I’m no longer contracted to them & had my DTV revoked
Hi, one issue which I think no one faced yet. I went to bkk immigration for the 90 day report, I went on 91 or 92 day, as I heard we can go till 1 week after. Also, at this time I was going home on 96th or 97th day, and had my flight booked, so was staying in bkk in hotels for 1 day at a time as left my condo, I got tm 30 from the hotel I was staying at, and they give me the tm30 for 1 day, the immigration supervisor said they cannot do that( i understood they wanted atleast 8-9 days stay more), and asked me no problem you go back since your going home within 7 days after 90 days. Wasted my whole day, but i couldn't do anything after that and came back home. So question is what should I do now, and when I re enter or apply for driving next time can there be a problem, if yes what's the solution
Have you all been getting your bank accounts closed if you had your account before you got your DTV? I’m scared to go into my branch and hand them my passport. I use my ibanking quite a bit. Any info on this? Is it in fact bangkok banks policy to close your account if you’re on a dtv?
I’m gonna try the drivers license trick. That is a god idea. Unfortunately I was just forced to renew a 5 year (my secomd 5 year) to a 2 year also due to Dtv. I wonder if the 2 year license will give them a heads up to request my passport?
Hello, French citizen, UAE resident who applied for DTV Thailand as remote worker. I have the sufficient fund in my French account and provided statement but the authorities came back with the following requirement : “Please upload your personal Bank Statement in UAE with a minimum amount no less than THB 500,000 within the last 3 months and ensure it is updated until July 2025.” What are my options as sending the fund to UAE would still not meet the requirement of 3 months.
I thought that the funds were linked to the individual not the country of application.
