Yes, that is place.

Bring your receipt for the TM30.

And be prepared to pay a fine if you are late.

Here's a link to a map.

Why? You are making claims, and you are unwilling to back them up. Deflecting the fact by calling me clueless.

I am honestly wanting to know, so I can keep myself updated. But if you're gonna be all "trust me, bro" and not provide any sources for anything, your information is worth nothing and should be disregarded completely.

@Lucas *********

Seriously though, I really want to know.

But I can't think of anything, so have no idea to what to even look for in my quest for this knowledge.

@Lucas *********

So I'm right then, and you can't actually prove your claims?

Cool, cool.

@Lucas *********

enlighten me, kind sir.

What would require someone to have a bank account if they were here on a DTV?

If he went the Non-O based on retirement-route, he would need one for his extension of stay. But he would then also be eligible for getting one.

But I can't think of anything else that would absolutely require him to have a bank account.

I would honestly love to know.

@Lucas *********

bank account I agree with. But bank account is not really necessary.

License does not require any visa.

Only difference will be when you renew the licenses.

Can't legally work with the retirement path though.

@Lucas *********

what perks?

@Max ************

Better than not getting an account at all.

Maybe it's easier to move the account to a new branch than it is to open one ?

Don't really know, haven't done a tonn of research since my extension of stay doesn't require any financial proof.

Not Pattaya, but I went to my local Kasikorn-branch today and opened a couple of accounts. While I have a extension of stay based on marriage so there was no problems, I asked about what about people with "regular" 90 day Non-O stamps.

The lady said it should not be a problem and sounded surprised when I told her I read about many people struggling to open accounts with their 90 day Non-O stamps.

This was in Cha-Am, Petchaburi province.

Why would there be problems?
