-THAI BANK ACCOUNT-

My SCB account was opened 8 years ago as salary account on my Non-B visa. I always maintained several million THB paid to me through legitimate, Thai taxed salary/benefits, which I am still maintaining after quitting my job. I also religiously filed Thai Income tax returns each year.

Recently my WP and Non-B visa has been cancelled after my resignation. I am considering switching to DTV. So, as reported by several members here on DTV, is my bank account at risk now or anytime in near future? TIA 🙏

I’ll be coming to Thailand in the 90 day visa with plans to then apply for the non-o retirement visa.

I’ll need to open a bank account and deposit the 800,000 Baht.

How do I open a bank account without a permanent Thailand address?

What visas do you need now in order to open a Thai bank account. I heard DTV Visa can’t open it?

Hello, after researching and visiting 2 different bank's, I'm confused. I want to apply for a non O retirement visa but need a bank account to put my 800k into. However, bank won't let me open one without a non o visa with at least 60 days valid. What am I missing, please?🙏

I'm on a DTV visa, I have a KTB bank account and yesterday I got this message from the bank. ANYONE ELSE?

This might be good news and stop the worry.

How do you open a Thai bank account to deposit the 800k before getting the visa? Or do you get the visa first then deposit the money, do I need an agent ?

Pattaya agents got harder to open a bank account. They say rules got stricter recently. Anybody can reccomend an visa agent in Pattaya to open a bank account?

Being 70 y/o now and only just started drawing my 3 uk pensions, I can easily meet the 65k thai baht p/month criteria for having uk/thai money income/transfer, I also have a decent amount of savings to put 400k thai bht in a Thai bank,. I need to open a Thai bank account and will be entering the country on a 60 day visa exempt stamp and will extend this by 30 days,I have a Residense in thailand also, what’s my best plan of action when I arrive back in a few months time ?,.thanks,.
