A couple of days ago I renewed my Non-Imm O for the 2nd year. I got a letter from the bank, however, it was the one for when first applying. I needed a statement for the previous 12 months. Being told by the Imm officer I would need to go to the main Bangkok Bank in Silom and apply, I thought, Oh no!. Instead I went to the bank downstairs in CW and spoke with them. I was informed by a very helpful staff, I could submit a request on my phone App and get it sent to me in 5 minutes. Print it, get it stamped by the bank. Problem solved. I told the Imm. Officer. Who then told others. Hope this helps others.

Hi there. I'm just trying to understand the bank account situation before applying for the DTV.

Its my understanding that I need to have THB 500,000 siting untouched in a Thai bank account for period of time before I can apply for the DTV.

My question is; how can you establish a Thai bank account if you don't already live in Thailand? Also, its my understanding that you can't obtain a permanent residential address (to open a bank account) unless you have some form of visa already allowing you to live Thailand.

Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Any suggestion on the digital wallet for paying I’ve tried to download Truman and it won’t allow a US area code and phone number to enter an account.

All Thai banks refused to open a bank account with a DTV visa. It’s really hard to believe how they operate. Even though you can open a bank account with a visa on arrival, they have no policy for opening accounts with a DTV, which is a long-term visa. It is very disappointing to me. They still don’t accept me, even though I explained the DTV thoroughly to their bank manager 😭

Curious to know if anyone has a HSBC bank account in Thailand that serves as their Thai bank for the purpose of visa requirements!

I know there are a few threads on this but has anyone had any luck opening a bank account in Bangkok on a DTV visa? I’ve tried every chain in different locations but no luck as yet. Have heard some places do accept it though. Thanks!
