What are the best e-SIM options for unlimited internet in Thailand for 2 months?

Marianne ********

AIS.

You can order it online I think. Or just get regular SIM at airport.

You will get a much better deal on unlimited than the multiple country eSIMs.

What documents are necessary to open a bank account in Thailand on a non-immigrant O visa and married to a Thai citizen?

Marianne ********

@Matthew ********

when the Non-O is based on marriage, they often want to see the marriage certificate.

They have wanted this in both branches I have accounts in.

Can I open a Thai bank account with a DTV visa in Koh Samui?

Marianne ********

No. You are not eligible for opening a bank account on the DTV visa. Agents can no longer help with this.

Are there any issues upon returning to Thailand on a DTV without long-term accommodations?

Marianne ********

There should be no requirements for you to have long term accommodation upon arrival. If they ask, just give them your hotel, and that should be it.

Can I apply for a DTV visa in Thailand without meeting the lump sum requirement?

Marianne ********

Well, for the DTV you need a sum equalling to 500k baht in a bank account in your name for 3 months prior to your application.

No lump sum, no visa.

Income does not matter, the lump sum does.

Your best bet is probably a Education Visa, and actually go to school to learn the Thai language.

Is the Savannakhet Consulate now fully e-Visa only for Non-O marriage visas in 2025?

Marianne ********

If you have 400k baht stashed away in a Thai Bank Account already, is it not possible to change from the Elite to the Non-O inside of Thailand?

I know you can do that going from tourist visa or visa exemption.

What are the options for obtaining an International Driving Permit (IDP) in Thailand with a UK driving licence?

Marianne ********

Anonymous participant Yes. Pretty much.

Just get your car license converted and drive a car until you've got a local motorbike license, shouldn't be too hard if you figure out the driving.

There's a official website here for more specifics and a PDF-book for learning the rules you might get questions on for the motorbike license.
