Can you open a bank account in Thailand on a visa exemption without additional requirements?

Isaac *****

@Ekkehard ******

yes but nowadays virtual banks like Revolut and Wise allow you to have a milti-currency account of up to 25 currencies (THB included) with a Visa card. The FX rates are much better than international TT rates - plus there won't be any fees when U use the visa card in the country.

Do I need an onward flight ticket to enter Thailand with a one-way ticket?

Isaac *****

Immigration in Bangkok asked me how long I would stay when I landed 2 weeks ago. I just answered 1 week and they never asked to see my onward ticket. This being said your airline may ask the same question when you check-in in Hanoi
