You can still do it with an agent around 12k now. Lad in my building did it last week.

Sure What do you need ?

I rent a studio in a great building no contract just month to month for $300. I rent a small scooter $80 a month. Unlimited data and calls mobile package around $15 a month, wi fi is free in my building. Eating out Thai food/ street food around $ 12 a day but depends on what you prefer if you want western food or enjoy nice restaurants then its going to be more. I think you're way over on most of your budget but I live pretty cheaply. Main costs are booze and women 😆. I've lived here 4 years so any questions just ask.

Good Luck.

Read the article before you comment. This did not happen in Thailand. 🤣 Couldn't wait could you ? 😆😆

Best bet is apply 90 day Non O before you arrive. Will make opening bank account much easier.

@David *******

With respect sir, what was your original injury ? Is it an injury or a medically diagnosed conditon/ illness. ?

You opened a bank account on a tourist visa ?

Yes you can. Residence certificate needed. Go to Land Transport Office or satellite ask for relevant paperwork ahead of time, just makes things easier. Copy sellers ID and green book.

Looking at your stamp, you have to leave every 90 days. So I'm guessing you have an evisa of some kind.This is probably the difficulty you are having. I opened a bank account on this visa last year at Bangkok Bank in Pattaya.
