Thanks. I land in Thailand 16 August. Have posted a question in a group on Koh Phangan, where I'm considering opening the first account, asking for people's recent experience 🙏

@Michael *******
Thanks, yes. I see the comments of how to get around those bank fees using card-less withdrawal. But anyway I would have an account where I am living.

I hear you. I would open an account in the province I live. So I may have accounts in more than 1 province.

Thanks, yes. So if I open another account close to Immigration office, I should be fine?

In many countries you need to demonstrate residency to apply for the non O visa (e.g. I couldn't get it in Greece). I got mine from Thai embassy in Taiwan.
