Hello everyone, I would like to share that my husband managed to open an account at Bangkok Bank with the DTV visa… Documents provided:

passport

DTV visa

TM30

proof of residence in Thailand

letter provided by immigration. (To request this letter, simply provide TM30, proof of residence, DTV visa and pay 500 baht).

Does anyone know of a gd visa office in bangkok to do my retirement visa n open a bank account in bangkok

How can I open a Thai Bank account? And which payment method should I use for cheaper costs?

Can we open bank account in pattaya on this DTV visa?

Hi everybody

As the DTV from the UK is sent via email as a PDF to be printed out does anybody know if this is acceptable to open a bank account in Thailand

Thanks for the add.

I’m marrying my Thai fiancé in 6 weeks then will move to Thailand in April.

I’m trying to get ready so wish to open a Thai bank account when I’m over for my wedding. Can I do this with my passport showing the 60 day tourist visa? We have been told by our agent that I need to get a different visa from the Thai embassy in London before traveling but I think this was when the tourist visas were only for 30 days. As they are now 60 days, can I open a bank account ? It will make life easier for me knowing I don’t have to apply now for a different visa as I’m leaving it late ! Thanks

I will like to invest some business in Thailand, before that how can I open an account in Thailand bank

Hello, I just returned from Laos in an attempt to get my retirement visa going. Thought I had everything I needed as far as my paperwork. Unfortunately when we went to the Thailand Embassy they said I didn't have the financial statements I needed. They said I have to show 800,000 bath in a Thai bank. I brought 20,000 when I came to Thailand but after trying to open a bank account at several banks without success. How do you open a bank account without a retirement visa? Thanks everyone. 👍

I am trying to work out the time frame available for extending a non-O as a newcomer to Thailand.

I am married with a lovely Thai lady. We currently live in Netherlands, but upon my retirement we plan to move to Thailand permanently.

Now I see a serious time constraint. When requesting an extension you need to have the required deposit in the bank for at least two months. The extension must be requested approx two weeks before the non-O expires.

That leaves only 2 weeks available to get a bank account and get the appropriate amount into that account. Am I right? How do people arrange that so fast?

I worry about it because an international bank transfer takes already a week before it arrives. Basically that means I will have only a single week to open up an account and get the money in. Scary!

im going to thailand on a 3 months visa to open a bank account there and get married can i apply for a marriage visa while im there or do i have to return to Australia and apply from there?
