- valuable knowledge. u might have saved me beaucoup needless time and effort.

As a follow up to my original question — say I don’t plan on driving in Thailand; how else does having a Thai drivers license make life easier? Will it facilitate signing up for a Thai-based credit card? Or is it required to sign up for any local Apps that make life easier (lazada, grab etc)? Or is it pretty much unnecessary for utility uses.

US in BKK

I’m going to Apply at Bangkok Immigration

- i was advised that for funding my new 800,000bt account (for Extension of Stay money seasoning), I need to send unconverted dollars either from my Canada dollar or US dollar accounts, and let receiving bank (In my case Bangkok Bank), do the conversion. But since I’m in middle of this exact moment, I’m curious to hear whether the source-point of the conversion to baht from dollars matters to final consideration at Thai Immigration.

@Bobby ******
