and im speaking of just today cause I forgot my IDP in my condo and was pulled aside in a check point into chiang mai so yeah pretty sure either this is just random BS not implemented or traffic police didnt get the memo or I just got lucky.
Wasn't that i was directed to pull aside i passed a car going slow into a curb and right where the cop was standing, thats what I get for being slick
From my understanding if you do not have perm resident visa in thailand you have to report if you are in thailand for 90 consecutive days.
Also my understanding they have an app you can use to do your 90 day check in its in the thai immigration website you can report there upload a digital tm.47 or down load the app from their website as well
again ... you do not need a thai bank account to show funds you just repeated what I said with extra steps... he is better off doing this in his home country applying for visa doesn't sound like he will have time. You people here Crack me up you rush to say "no your wrong..." then explain how I was right anyway
