Has anyone managed to get a Thai Tax Identification number. How was the process. They are saying after 180 days here we become tax residents, but can’t open bank accounts etc. was just wandering how straightforward it is to get the TIN? Many thanks. 🙏🏻

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

I have a US passport and I'm over 50 years old, will deposit 800k in Thai bank. I plan on entering Thailand on a 30 or 45 day Visa exempt, then apply for 90 day Non-O visa, and 1 yr extension.

Can I open a bank account if I'm staying at a hotel, or do I need a condo/house rental agreement?
