no you don't. You can get a bank account with a DTV and you don't need an agent. Just because some banks are not up to day on the process doesn't mean you can as many have for various reasons

@Lincoln *********

do you reply need this explaining?! Rent, Bills, Bank Transfers etc.

You know like all them normal day to day living expenses you normally use a bank account for 🤦‍♂️

@Lisa **************

you have no clue what you are talking about. DTV allows you to work remote, just not for a Thai company or Thai clients that's all!

Many reasons to have a Thai bank account. First to transfer money from your main account from your home country to your Thai account so you can use local currency easier

Setup direct debits and pay bills like phone and medical, rent etc.

Many people have opened accounts under DTV and visa except for medical bills.

Try educating your self before talking dribble!

do you work at an embassy? What's with the passive aggressive reply? What is the harm is asking and then providing a response?

Ask your embassy, I asked this very question and they said I would need to provide documents again which wouldn't surprise me and why I asked.

Seems less hassle to just leave and re enter especially as situations could change.
