I wasn't saying they would stop anyone to check if the 90 day report was done, however if they stop someone for something else they can and do check if the 90 day report has been done if required. If not that's where the 5,000 comes in
Ray *****
5,000 if you haven't done one and are stopped by police for anything

I use ABA had the account over 10 years with no issues. They are owned by the national bank of Canada. All been very safe. I needed a 6 month visa when I opened my account

@Ross ********
no , that's not how it works. You have a Riel balance and it shows as Baht in Thailand.

It's an agreement between Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam.

For example and this works in each country. I go to buy something in Lotus in Bangkok and it's 100b. I go to pay by scan with my Cambodian account. The price would show in my app as
*****
Riel and 100 Baht. . The Riel amount would come out of my Cambodian account and Lotus would be paid in Baht.

Same the other way. If I use my Thai account in Cambodia and something is 4000 Riel it would show in my Thai account as about 33baht. And the local vendor gets paid in Riel.

So yes you can pay with promptpay in Thailand but generally for business not personal accounts

@Elías *******
You did say in your country, which it doesn't have to be. I didn't suggest it was mandatory to be in a Thai account just that many have been approved with the funds in a Thai account

@Stephanie *******
yet they haven't for all the accounts. Yes some have had issues. Mainly those opened Via agents, no real surprise there.

DTV_BegPecker exactly and Thai accounts are acceptable

@Elías *******
I have to question your statement. Many have had a DTV issued with Thai bank statements. There is nothing in the rules that prohibit that
Ray *****
Anonymous participant 758 that is not the rules at all. Many have been accepted with Thai bank accounts
Ray *****
Anonymous participant 693 DTV has got nothing to do with paying taxes, stop talking nonsense
