Hi!

I have a 90 day non O visa.

Do I need to open the bank account in same city or area as the one I want to apply for the 12 month extension at?

Or would it work to open one account in Koh Samui, for example, so I can deposit funds for seasoning. Then when I get up to Chiang Mai later, open another acount in a branch there?

I am planning to base myself in Chiang Mai but considering spending time on the islands when I first arrive in Thailand. I want to get the account open + funds seasoning asap.

Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏

Bank account question: do I have to be in Thailand to open a Bangkok bank account? If so how long does it take to open one and fund it? Thanks!
