Do I need to submit a printed TDAC for my visa extension application in Thailand?

Max *************

@Lynnette ******

But that printed copy came from an email,right? It means you can open that mail from any computer anywhere and print out a new TDAC when needed. You sound like a clueless not so tech savvy conspiracy theorist. You think bank apps and smart phones are dangerous and you're giving people advice here? Come on, it's not 2005 anymore.

Is it necessary to have a Thai bank account for expats relocating to Thailand?

Max *************

You're basically a tourist then? You do know that you can transfer money from back home to your Thai bank account and only use a Thai ATM-card? That's imo even better.

@Matthew ********

Many commercial banks back home doesn't have that option and I'm living in Thailand long term, meaning using a foreign card is pure stupidity,but that's up your alley.

Having access to money in a US bank is one thing,but it doesn't mean you shouldn't have a Thai bank account with a debit/atm-card.I bet you can't find one (sane) expat living in Thailand long term without a Thai bank account. If there is, I would like to see what he/she looks like. 😂

Did you do that while staying in Thailand non-stop for 5 years? If yes, a not so very smart move compared to having a Thai bank account with a debit card/ATM-card.
