Further to my post 3 days ago referring to the maximum GBP, I could transfer from the UK to Kasikorn Thailand.

I e mailed Kasikorn, and they replied stating that they do not normally have a maximum.

Adding it depends on the sender's bank, maximum for transfers.

Is there a top limit for transfers to a Kasikorn account, I need to transfer £2000 approx' 80,000 + Baht to top up my account for my upcoming visit.

Hello! Has anyone successfully opened a bank account with the DTV Visa? And if so what bank and what branch?

Thanks!

Has anyone had any success transferring money from Kasikorn Bank to Wise? I’m looking online and it looks like you can do it, but the instructions are confusing.

Hi guys, has anyone managed to open a bank account with the DTV Visa? If so, which banks accept and or reject? 🤔 #banking #dtv

Thanks to everyone who helped yesterday regarding information on how to open a Thai current bank account.

In line with advice I’ll try and use an agent.

Does anyone know an agent based in or around Udon Thani.

Thank you.

Today, I received approval for DTV from the US Thai Consulate. I want to open a Thai bank account preferably with Kasikorn. Has anyone successfully opened a Thai bank account with the DTV?

Looking to open up a bank in Thailand in 2 weeks. Is there a particular bank that anyone would recommend? Also is there a certain amount needed to open it up?

I'm on a Non B and need to get another bank account. My partner and I got our visas with a joint account back in early 2023, but I'd like to get my own account.

I bank with Bangkok Bank but they're really bad at opening a new account! They take weeks to confirm it's open, and months to sort internet banking out.

I've been waiting weeks for them to confirm it's open and know the internet banking side is going to make me want to stick a thousand forks in my eyes, so want to look at other options.

Does anyone have an easier bank they can recommend? I'm in Chiang Rai.

Hello,

Which is the best bank to open account for ex-pats please?
