What is the recommended sequence of events when moving to Thailand for expats?
Henry *********
As others have said, get the appropriate visa before leaving. You cannot extend a 30-day visa exempt entry at the airport anyway. I used my UK driving licence to get my first Thai licence, no need for an IDP.

Should I open a new bank account in Pattaya for my Non-O visa needs?
Henry *********
Thai banks don't like people closing accounts. Just open a new one in Pattaya. Having more than one account is a good idea anyway.
