Is it better to open a bank account in Bangkok or Singburi for my non-O visa needs?

Bernd ***********

@Stuart ********

I got my branch in Bangkok but live now in Phuket. Bangkok bank at Central is very helpful and I can handle all stuff at their branch. For withdrawal at ATM I use cardless without any charge.

Bernd ***********

COVID teached me a lesson. OA visa must renewed in your home country. So I had to travel during COVID with all that restrictions. Wasn't easy with all that special paperwork. So I changed now from OA to O which I easily can extend in Thailand every year while OA extension is not that convenient.

Is it common for Thai immigration to ask for a printed insurance certificate for an OA retirement visa?

Bernd ***********

They have to check your insurance validity. OA visa could give a full year stamp at every entry if your health insurance match that period. Otherwise you will be stamped in for the validity of your current insurance.
