I had three bank accounts. They closed one as I did not go for face recognition verification. The two are still open.

Young they don't like foriengers living in Thailand on tourist visas. They like to have complete control of foreigners living in Thailand

Find somebody who already has a government job, and you can get into your spouse's health insurance. Becoming a Thai citizen is not simple. Even if you become a Thai citizen, you won't be guaranteed entry into Thailand's health care system for free.

BC Farang: That is the reason I switched to a DTV visa—to be completely free from Thai bureaucratic nonsense. No need to step inside a Thai bank or Thai immigration office. I feel liberated now. :)

Young I used to have Non-O, but I now changed to DTV to be completely free from Thai bureaucratic nonsense. I had three bank accounts ten years ago. After Covid, I stopped using Thai banks completely. Now I think they have closed one bank account. I still have two bank accounts, but I haven't used them at all for the last five years.

In the home country, it is different. I have more than 19 bank accounts in the USA and 100+ credit cards.

Von Steiglitz just curious to know what people do with multiple bank accounts in Thailand. I started the experiment of living in Thailand without any Thailand bank transactions and never encountered any issue. I switched to a dtv now after 10 years of o visa. And many dtv visa holders complain about not being able to open a bank account. I was wondering why people need a thai bank account. Thai banks must have come to the same conclusion as me that one does not need a Thai bank account to live in Thailand.

If you have one bank account, why do you need multiple bank accounts? I have lived in Thailand for more than five years without any thai bank transactions.

Tdac has nothing to do with how long you travel.
