Can I apply for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) while holding a retirement visa in Thailand?

Greg ********

Yes the retirement might need cancelling. For me to move from O Retirement to a B the O had to be cancelled first. Then Embassy woukd not accept the B application with my O still being valid. No idea if different for DTV. If you leave on O without re-entry permit though it is cancelled.

What do I need to do to update my passport information for my Bangkok Bank account?

Greg ********

If just account is new you should be fine. Basically the account must match the name on the SIM card which must be tied to an ID such as passport.

Can you be denied entry to Thailand even with a DTV visa?

Greg ********

Exactly. One of the most cringiest things possible is watching foreigners Wai at the wrong time and place. If you do not know how to do it correctly then do not do it was advice I have always been given. If you are meeting someone senior you will be given advice.

@Clint ********

How does the bank know if I get a new passport? Absolute nonsense. Yes I need to update passport details at my banks but there is absolutely no way they would know if I did not tell them. Who woud tell them? The UK HMPO or Thai Immigration? The only 2 possible?
