What do you think about Pay&Tour tourist bank card from Kasikornbank?

More info here:

I have been doing the 800000 in the bank since I got here but am send over well over well over 800000 a year to live but not always 650000 in a month obviously watching the exchange rates and send more over when hi and topping up when need. My bank statement will show this. Can this be used as the 650000 per month as I herd they add all amounts together and divide by 12. But also herd they take monthly amount and go on the lowest amount sent. Can anyone give my best options to get my monthy income cover my visa requirements rather than the 8000000

Is anyone able to tell me what type of taxes you pay after retirement? I believe it has to do with the amount of income? Are you paying alot or a moderate amount?

🚨UPDATE on third-party banking options like DeepPocket and Moreta, often considered alternatives for DTV holders without Thai bank accounts.

Be aware, online banking apps such as DeepPocket and Moreta have recently become popular, attracting many users.

However, after a surge in sign-ups, DeepPocket has altered its terms of service. Now, the QR-Scan feature is limited to 30-days and they will charge you 399THB every month for it!

Additionally, I ordered and received a Debit Card through the mail after waiting over a month, only to discover it's valid for less than a year…

So, if you believed these apps could fully substitute for a traditional bank account, think again! I strongly suggest securing a Thai bank account for seamless management of daily expenses.

I had my doubts from the start, suspecting these offers were too good to be true. Beware of these dubious apps that suddenly appear, tricking users into signing up only to impose fees later on.

Get a local bank account if you can!

Potential problem discovered today. Some immigration offices may ask you for proof your bank deposit came from abroad. Many people use online banks like Wise. But Wise send from their Wise London bank to a partner bank in Thailand, and then on to your bank. So your deposit's code in your Thai bank is not from abroad. Immigration can therefore make this an obstacle - that needs overcoming - to get your visa. Note: not all offices or officers ask for this apparently.

UPDATE: According to others, it seems this problem has been solved by Wise giving an option to send "funds for longstay". If, like me however, you sent the funds before this option was available, the problem remains. You will most likely have to resend the funds from abroad. My local office will not accept the Wise (funds sent) statement as proof.

Has anyone else gotten this request and what did you do? I don't have any money just sitting in my bank doing nothing, it's all in stocks. If I sell 500,000THB of stocks and deposit into my bank will they accept that? Seems like a ridiculous waste of time

I would love to come in with my partner early next year. I earn in USD and am Nigerian. My only way to access my money would be my USD card.

Knowing that with a DTV, I am not entitled to opening a bank account here, what other ways can I send my money into Thailand and/or pay for stuff?

Thank you.

Will HCMC or Hanoi accept current balance of 500k from two different bank account

Krunsgri + Lloyd’s in UK.

If I manage to borrow money from back home would rather not send it ….to my Thai account and back

Could lose nearly 10,000 in fees + conversion I think

I need to pay for my visa - how can I withdraw a large amount of money? As I can only draw 30,000 a day using the atm? Sorry if it’s a stupid question

Hi guys, has anyone managed to open a bank account with the DTV Visa? If so, which banks accept and or reject? 🤔 #banking #dtv
