@Daniele **********
they have been accepting foreign accounts. Of coarse, having it in a Thai account would look much better.

1 - no, it can be in any account.

2 - from what I have seen/read, just show them you have 400k฿ in any account. As long as your name is attached to the account.

3 - I would have the proof done as close as possible to your application date.

4 - there is no seasoning for this. In other words, it doesn’t have to be in that account for a period of time.

Please keep us informed when you do decide to return and apply. I’m heading there in a couple of months to do the same thing.

Good luck.

If you’re in Bangkok, I highly recommend this company. I’ve used them over 10 times.

Meet at Lotus Sukhumvit 50 at 4am. Leave at 4:30. They stop half way to use the washroom and to grab something to eat. They do that both ways. Once at the border, when you’re finish you get a free meal. Back to Bangkok between 2-3pm.

Cost 3500฿ for westerner. Check their webpage for all the info you’d need.

I’ve been travelling to Thailand for years, now I live here.

The only shots I ever have/had are the typhoid and hepatitis A.

I wouldn’t worry about the others unless you plan on spending a lot of time in the jungle.

Try Talkatone or TextNow. Both are able to make calls, for free.

Laos isn’t like Thailand where there’s a limit on entering via land borders.

@Graham *****

@Tod ********
ah, ok. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I have the proof. Just not in a Thai bank.
