Samuel, and don't forget to register Wise full ! So with copy pasport and photo of y'r face, holding y'r pasport near y'r face. Otherwise bigger amounts most of the time getting refused and you first have to register full anyway.

@Robert ***********

Nope. You have to choose "Funds for long stay in Thailand". Then it shows international transfer. By the way, Bangkok bank is one of the few which shows that already. Other banks you many times find a code in the back of y'r bankbook.

@Ronald **********

Not an answer on opening a bank account but maybe for now solves the 'problem'. So think you went to Vientiane (Thai Embassy) ? At my latest knowledge Savannakhet (Thai Consulate) don't ask financial evidence.

Can I log in to my Kasikorn Bank account from a computer, and is it possible to use the account from abroad?

Peter ****************

Last year I went to the Netherlands, and had no problems to use the Kbank app. Before there was an app, I used the web page. They call it 'cyberbanking'. Still can/must login there to see my fixed deposit account (needed for my mastercard). You cannot 'connect' it within the app.
