I'm so glad I use Chase Private and keep my money out of Thai Banks.

We keep the bare minimum required for business and we don't touch it....

I've seen so many friends in the past month have problems with multiple branches here.

.

Not to mention the homeless people sleeping outside of the ATMs, and ATMs that remain broken for weeks at a time.

The banking system here really needs to clean up their act.

the people that get in trouble for doing stuff like that have usually caused a problem somewhere else, and it's reported as retribution .

I've been here for 8 years. People like to put fear in to new arrivals.. it's always been like that 😂

Enjoy your stay brother and good luck.

Washing your car and stuff like that.. I wouldn't worry

If you're doing any kind of major tree trimming or construction on your house.. yeah

The purpose of immigration and labor enforcement is to protect Thai jobs.. they're not the Gestapo.

I've lived here for 7 years. I have one Thai bank account but I almost never use it.

I know people here longer that don't have one.

The maximum insurance is only 1 million baht. So you can't give a large amount of money in there.. I keep only what I need for the LLC and regulations.

Even shopping I use Western debit cards. Good Western banks will refund any fees

Nothing in her name . Nothing

Car, house , leasehold, everything..

I had to buy a second car because I used my ex to get a good interest rate.

Call me, my friend is a lawyer and will actually handle all the immigration stuff for you in person.. like he will go with you to get your visa.
