Is it a tourist visa?

I think you will find you have a 60 day visa. So, you may have already overstayed.

The details aren’t out. We don’t even know when or if it will happen.

What was wrong with my answer?

Well, you can make the plan but it may not work!

He’s got a tourist visa for 3 months. Then he will leave and come back to get the 60 visa exemption.

Ok. I think rent in Bangkok may be more but maybe not!

Your budget looks pretty sound. If you eat ‘local’ your food bill will be a fraction of that. I could eat for $10 a day quite easily.

The rent looks reasonable. Are you renting a condo? Where will you be based?

Yes, I use Wise all the time and have done for a few years. The free ATM allowance is quite low though - mine is probably the equivalent of about US$200 a month, which goes nowhere.

I do deposit funds into my girlfriend’s account and the Wise fee is only ฿44.70. But somehow I seem to pay far higher fees than any bank account when getting my money back😂

Yes the reasons are obvious but the availability almost non existent for the tourist. I spend 4 months a year in Thailand, I could really use a Thai bank account but I don’t qualify.
