Which bank is best for expats to open an account in Thailand?
Shane ******
I've used krungsri and krungthai for the past 9 years, both fantastic banks. Especially krungthai for the app and paying bills.

Bkk bank is very limited for bill payments.

Think you can purchase a bus ticket to go across the border at Laos. This should be good enough for airline. Try 12go app. Or website.

Best to get a wise acct, and the wise debit card. Better exchange rate. And just pull the cash out at a atm in thailand.

What is the best internet provider for rural areas in Thailand?
Shane ******
We use tot. There was nothing available in our area, but my sister in law found out if she got a handful of people in the area willing to get internet they would come and install the modem and wires. Then get each person to have their services connected.

We are super rural and have great speed 3-400mbps 5G service.

What is the process and wait time for re-entry at Suvarnabhumi International Airport?
Shane ******
Bottom of the escalator to the right. About 30 steps straight along the glass window's.

Can print out paperwork and have it filled out, or get from your local immigration. Doesn't take long if you are prepared. 5-15 min.
