Interest in a savings account might be 0.5% at best. In a Fixed Deposit Account at Bangkok Bank maybe 1.85% for a 7 months term which is slightly better than a 12 months term. Strange but true. Ask me how I know.

What is a certificate of residence and do I need a lease agreement to open a bank account in Thailand with a Non O-A visa?

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

@Brandon ***********

Correct,thats why I said some. There are 44 countries just in Europe with embassies and consulates in Thailand. Not every country has a totally useless embassy like the US which has almost stopped issuing any type of certificate for US citizens.

How can I certify and translate my Hong Kong passport and marriage certificate for a marriage visa in Thailand?

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

Then I guess you need to certify/legalize a passport copy back home or maybe in a neighboring country where there is an embassy or consulate.The MFA won't probably accept this to be done by anyone. Same with the marriage license.
