Getting a bank account is tricky.

You need to look presentable and professional.

It is all up to the agent if you will succeed or not.

The agent wants to know you will be a long term customer and will put money into their bank so they can charge fees …it’s a Business after all.

Best seems to be Bangkok Bank.

I told them I’m a frequent visitor, had $500 to deposit and want to buy a condo soon.

This was the ticket.

I had to buy an insurance policy for about $100 …..I think it’s a side hustle for them.

What will you do if the Qatar Airways flight arrives late?

Consider taking the latest flight to Chiang Mai and also have a backup plan for staying overnight in Bangkok.

Maybe you can go to the airport counter a few days before your trip and ask to change be it. Go when they aren’t busy.
