@John ********

I have replied several times to your different posts giving you the same information as others as long as the property owner or hotel or … registers you on a TM 30 that’s fine

You can take the photos at the place you are living at as long as the owner gives you permission

As others have said using an agent to open a bank account invites problems. It is partly due to activities of agents that the issue that are happening now are happening

You can do this really easily all by yourself in Buriram. In many cases once you start with an agent you are locked in with them

If you are looking at citizenship you would need three years of work permits amongst other requirements. If you are not married to a Thai you would also need to get Permanent Residency first.

This link gives you lots of information on the topic

You don’t apply to TDAC it’s an arrival card so in the same way many countries have these you are just required to fill in your information

@Tammico ******

for Permanent Residency you would need a minimum of three years working along with other requirements more detailed information can be found on this link

If you call SCB head office, the number is in the SCB APP they should be able to confirm everything for you

@Simon ********

I have had one for 20 years

TDAC is your arrival card so you need to fill it in for every arrival

It’s linked to your passport electronically so they see your information when they scan your passport, they will ask to see your copy if there is discrepancy

You will find all the information you need on this website



There is also Facebook page affiliated to the site

@Thai ************

Most will advise you to not use an agent and do the work yourself

@Mahmood ********
