It's strange my friend wants the DTV but his bank said he needs a work visa to open foreign currency acct to receive payment from suppliers.
Which technally the DTV is a special work visa, I've been told you can work if you notify and receive permission Thai labor department with dvt visa, as in non digital or Thai specific work...
I opened my Bangkok Bank acct on a 30 tourist visa my second time here in 1 afternoon i had to by life insurance thru them per Thai rule. Which was about 7k baht or something
