Any suggestions on what bank to go with under the DTV? Do you get a bank card instantly? (I’m only in khon kaen for 1-2 days).

Right now I’m in isan but I’ll probably eventually move to Pattaya. Should I wait and open the account in Pattaya or just do it today in isan?

Banks? I live in Karon Beach. I just received my. Non-O immigrant visa. Next is to open a bank account. I assume it probably would be a branch in Patong.

Do people have a Bank to recommend?

Bangkok ? Kasikorn?

I guess I’m looking for decent customer . Also if I put ฿800,000 in there for a year, I would like to get some kind of return

Bank account with TTB

After reports in this group that TTB accepts the DTV for opening bank accounts, I visited the Central Festival Pattaya branch. And they refuse to even consider opening an account without a work permit.

Has anyone opened a bank account with them recently? If so, which branch? I don't mind going to Bangkok or another nearby city to open an account.

TIA

Regarding Bank Accounts (as well as other non-DTV) items TikTok has just posted this. I am posting this in DTV about the new banking regulatory requirements only.

They are very well connected and have been around a long time.

Does the 500,000 baht have to be in one single account or can it be spread across a couple of accounts all in my name?

I am currently holding ed visa and will be switching to dtv. I opened a bank account in Krungthai bank with the letter from current school. Will the bank account be still usable for long term even after switching to dtv?

Do i need to update the visa in bank? Will the bank possibly approve for it?
