Open Thai Bank account

Back in the good old pre-digital everything days I've had bank accounts with Thai Farmer and Bangkok bank, both not a bother. Ì returned couple times last year after 6 years absence due to covid and subsequent price increases, met a sweetheart in March last year and we rented an apartment and spent 5 months together in total, returned Feb this year, got married in March, now I'm busted flat back in Blighty but no wukas I got some bikes to sell but it may be quite a while before I have the dinero to get back but never mind.

What I want to determine is when I come on the 90 Non 'O' and go to open a bank account which as yet ì haven't decided which one but Bangkok's out because they screwed me before, but what's all this shit about showing a Brit driver's license? I didn't renew back in February because of failing eyesight so don't ride/drive anymore, in Thailand I ride pillion on back of the Missus and fight a losing battle trying to educate her how to ride to live lol 😆

I do still keep my expired license just for ID but no way will be applying for a Thai one. Appreciate any info 👍

interesting I did not know the rules changed

Hi all,

I've tried searching here for an answer but can't find one so hopefully someone can offer some advice.

I have recently applied for a UK passport and realise that this is unlikely to come any time soon.

I know I can't travel internationally but am I able to fly domestically within thailand holding my current passport for purely ID purposes?

There is another 2 years before expiry, I've just run out of pages so there's not a problem on that front.

Thanks in advance!

Hello admin! I have to register a chamge of adress, living in Bangkok.

My new block of apartments is happy to fill in the tm30 forms, but wants me to take them to immigration. They cannot do online.

Apart from the 2 tm30 forms, will i require the power of attorney form to be filled by them?

Also do I have to show the copy of id card and tabien baan from the owner?

I already have the rental agreement.

Thanks for your assistance.

Can 15 yr old Thai national travel internally without a Thai passport with his mother, domestic flights only.

I am going to Bangkok Immigration next week to register my TM30 as I’m moving into my wife’s mothers home in Bangkok. Do I need to take her blue book and ID card (she can’t come with me) or will a signed photocopy of both be ok?

Thank you 🙏
