Has anyone experienced opening a bank account in Pattaya and the bank asked for 10,000 baht fee? as requirement to get a retirement visa. Thanks for any info.
Alert!: Thai wife visa: I just extended it, with, as usual, the 400k on my bank account. Bangkok Bank says they will block it for 6 months! Indeed, I see I cannot use the 400k! But I read nothing about this new rule in the immigration website! Any idea? Thanks
