I’m on a retirement visa now but when I arrived I had a bad time getting a bank account where I live so I went to Pattaya and used these. They were really helpful
In my opinion. If you’re using an agent then yes. I paid that through an agent because of the visa I was on at the time. I had to travel to Pattaya to get one as. It was a definite no in the rural banks here. I really don’t begrudge it now. As having a Thai Bangkok bank account is so much easier. Paying by barcode scan is so easy and no chance of being short changed or scammed in any way AS far as I know
Can I ask. So when you apply for the extension you still need to have 800; 000 baht in the bank. Not just for the non o application. As I was informed. I don’t want to go below this before I apply for my extension in 90 days thanks
