define tourist and define long term resident. Has nothing to do with rights a foreigner has (or has not) vs the rights of a thai person.

i understand that after 1 year that its possible for for an extension not to renewed. But anyone on a long stay visa/ extension is still not classed as a tourist 🤷‍♂️

seriously? A Non o or non b resident is NOT a tourist. Simple as that. Still a guest, but not a tourist

I'm not a tourist 🤷‍♂️ I'm "allowed" to use online banking with my business account, but I'm not allowed to register the same account on the K Biz app. This post has nothing to do with being a tourist trying to operate a bank account

I would check Bangkok Bank. While a bank account on anything other than a long term is difficult, I think that owning/buying a condo meets the criteria on a short term visa.
