Hi. As you may know, the Thai government has introduced a regulation requiring that every bank account must be linked to a phone number registered under the account holder’s name. From what I’ve read, the deadline is today. Unfortunately, I won’t make it in time because it can’t be done online and you have to go to a branch. Does anyone know what the consequences will be?
If you are using the 12 monthly foreign deposits to your Thai Bank Account make sure you check your statement when you get it from the bank. I got my 1 year statement and its missing my deposit for both February and March. So I look at my bank book and both deposits are listed on it. I also downloaded the 1 year statement directly from the Bangkok Bank App and they are listed on that. I guess it's back to the bank tomorrow. 5555
Ok, I'm pretty sure thus is what we need to do. We are slowly getting things ready to retire in Thailand. I know we each need our own bank account with 800000tbh each. But I would think we would want a joint account in Thailand to use. So would you recommend us having our own accounts to satisfy the visa needs and keep them over 800000k or just have 3 accounts? Especially knowing it's getting a little harder to open bank accounts
