Thomas ********************

Be advised the process can take quite a while. I got mine in May and it was a good month and a half. Hopefully, we'll see an announcement today that'll give you more than plenty time.

Thomas ********************

Never hurts to be prepared. For example, it's not unlikely that the "easy" extension will include that pesky embassy letter. But I'm sure you'll follow along from the beach and adapt if necessary :)

What type of visa do I need to open a bank account in Thailand?

Thomas ********************

Try different branches. I opened one on a tourist visa (Bangkok Bank.) I had a "letter of reference" from my embassy, though. That helps.

Is the Elite Visa a good option after the recent visa amnesty in Thailand?

Thomas ********************

I did it recently. Took a month and a half. Lost a bit of time due to bankers being wankers. But there is no way I could've made it in a month.

So, there is a bit of uncertainty if starting the process now.
