Can you recommend any agent in Bangkok that would handle opening Bank Account on DTV visa? I got one offer, but 15k THB is insanely high. DTV = you have money = rip off?

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.

I came to Thailand this time to open bank account on which I will be able to transfer money to have retirement visa in Thailand. I came with 60 days travel visa. On third day after my arrival I came to government office to get my resident certificate. April has lot of government holidays. My resident certificate came after 4 weeks, on April 28. I came to Bangkok Bank to open account with all needed documents on first working day in May.

it was Tuesday May 2. At the bank I been told that from May 1 they have new regulation - I have to have not less than 30 day to end of my visa ( no extension) and I have to have sticker from Thai Consulate in my country on my Visa. Before I left my country I been told to apply for electronic visa, and this what I did. I have my visa till May 19 and going home without having open bank account. The all banking regulation and government regulation are against each other. How i have to prepare myself to open bank account next time I came to Thailand? Please advice me.- Thank you. I’m in Chiang Mai.

Hello everyone..I read different opinions about opening a bank account in Thailand..Im going there on TR visa (60) days and I’m hoping to apply for Non O visa at 50 years old next year(Not sure if I’m applying for Non O -A visa in my country yet) Kasikorn,Bangkok Bank and Siam Commercial Bank all can take transfers over 50,000 baht through ~Transfers Wise~

If I can get one open now it will be easier to have my 800,000 baht come time..Any suggestions? 🙏🏼 Ps.. All have a Thai address I can use…

I have a question for Americans who got their NON O visa in the U.S. How did you open a Thai bank account in the U.S. to meet that requirement? Are there Thai banks that can do that in the U.S.?

Hi all,

I’m wondering if the joint account is acceptable for married visa? If it is, how much money should we have in the account?

I have heard that a wife wouldn’t be able to access to her husband’s bank account if he passed away unless she has the consent from his family (children).

Please don’t get me wrong. I love my husband dearly, lol. We better do it right at the beginning, right?

All advices are appreciated. Thank you.
