This is the regulation for foreign drivers in Australia. You will see the three months is mentioned if someone has a resident permit or is a citizen. Visitors can drive on their home country licence until their visa expires

Actually he's right. This 90-day thing is an internet myth that is thrown around, loosely based on the notion that a "tourist entry" used to be limited to 90 days. There's nothing in Thai law which states 90-days. Under the Geneva Convention, reciprocal agreements exist. For example, a Thai licence holder can drive on their Thai licence for up to a year in Australia whilst on a tourist visa. The 90-day limit applies if the person becomes a permanent resident. So the condition is reciprocal, Australians can drive in Thailand for up to a year (provided their Aussie licence is valid). I urge you to steer clear of Visa Agents, they are known to spread misinformation in their pursuit of money

They don't close it - they just freeze it until you go into your branch and give them the details they want. They're trying to clean the dodgy accounts - it's not exactly a war against farangs

Bangkok Bank still issues letters for retirees. I got one about ten days ago. Plus the annual statements you can now order through the app, and they are emailed to you the next day which saves going into the bank branch. Very convenient

I think you might have read that in the unstable posts on Facebook. There's been nothing official. In fact, I read a report last week saying how happy the MFA is with the success of the DTV
