Opened kasikorn in market village 2 moths ago. Passport. House rental agreement. Thai driving licences. Then they asked for my uk licence as we don't have uk I'd cards

Chih Wei chatgpt. Not reliable. A lot of their advice is outdated. It does not check.

Michael Durkin who kept your licence. I got mine back when I changed two years ago.

Same problem with a Laos marriage certificate. Had to go to Vientiane to get it stamped, then go to the laos embassy in bangkok to stamp the stamp. Ridiculous and actually meaningless. Business opportunity for a rubber stamp maker. 😂😂😂

Steve Hemming I took in my passport. Lease agreement. Thai car licence. Car motorcycle licence. Arrived 20 mins before opening time. Ticket No1. Sat down. Gave him all the docs and he said I want your uk driving licence. ??????? 1 hour later ticket No. 25. Sod it I jumped the queue. Happy with my uk licence and sorted a new account there and then.

Yes

Two things guaranteed to cause endless mostly useless discussion. Visas and football. For visas choose who you ask carefully. For football, you are stuffed. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Just done the same. Got a 12 month statement. 5 working days and 200 baht. Took it to immigration and no good. You have to ask for 12 months credit statements. Ie showing just deposits for each month. Charged me 500 baht but did it straight away. I have now opened a kasikorn just to receive money and transfer it to bangkok to spend. My kasikorn statement will be simple next time.

Barath Faust I renewed my retirement visa and my laos wife got a dependant visa tied to the same dates as me.

Best exchange is actually in a pharmacy there. Sorry I cant remember which one. I was very surprised when some family members took me there. Not as surprised as getting some official documents translated in an earthworm farm. Yes they exist and this one was in a residential street. My uk bank, natwest will not recognise use of their atm machines, but you can draw cash from a bank with a debit card and your passport.
