Why would you even think of that.

The elite visa also was a massive failure because people with money look for ROI and sorry but that's not thailand, and if someone says you will, I have swamp land in Indonesia cheap

Todd Capron that's not true, they check all of 25. My nephew was the same as him and had to leave Christmas day and can't return until next year because of all the border runs and 30day extensions. This has always been the law but they never enforced it.

Jikee Jung I am sorry but you really want to trust them with that money. Not if, but when it will happen and you will be in a bind. What if you had to leave, and the banks lock down. It will happen.

Stupid as bank trying to regulate immigration requirements.

I mean think about it. You want me to put the money in 4 months before you give me the Cert and 3 after or you will call immigration and do what.

I have a family member who is a senior immigration officer and he doesn't even recommend using Bangkok bank

Stephen Howell you are just lucky, my sister went to put the 800k in and she only had 2000 in the acct and they closed her acct. Two days later they removed that rule, but she had to start from scratch so she went to krunthai and was a breeze. I speak Thai and when this happened i heard the people at the bank making fun of her for only having 2k. They have no clue that it's stupid to have any money in that bank. You will eventually get screwed. Sure been ok for 12years but notice what has happened in just the last year
