So the residency certificate is the first thing I need to get before going to the bank right? The office at Bangkok: Chaeng Wattana Immigration?

Ah ok that's good I guess since now everyone says Bangkok Bank isn't good for the Non-O anymore. Wonder what the other banks are requiring.

I think I'm leaning towards getting an AIrbnb for one month. I'll open a bank account asap when I get there.

This is what I'm hearing, you can't use them anymore for the Non-O when you get to Thailand.
Mark ****
Yes I'm in the US, and getting the Non O. The visa agents seem to be way overpriced.

@Paul ******
I saw that some people were having problems opening up a Thai bank account, but I think that was on the tourist visa.

@Bill ********
How much does the agent charge for the whole process?
Mark ****
I'm in the US now so do I apply for the Non-O from here and then go to Thailand and get a visa agent when I'm there to complete the process? Or get a visa agent from here in the US when I apply?

I am looking to maybe apply for the O Retirement when I go to Thailand again at the end of the year as opposed to the O-A from the US as it's more difficult. What do you think?
