Thanks for they reply.

I opened this account to transfer funds from Europe (maybe for a condo), but I have no income in Thailand, I'm non-resident, I stay less as 183 days, so I think in that case I should not to pay any tax.

I will look after other threads, and will happy if I get any other answer about this issues.

Thanks again!

Hi All,

last week I opened savings account, and FCD too at Krungsi, Rangsit. Was enough passport, no work permit needed.

I have two questions - hope somebody can give advices:

- at all documents I used my full name (2 surnames), and it's so in my passport too, but they forget one of them. Should I go back and asking to correct this, or is not a important issue?

- at my FCD contract is mentioned that tax-code=6, 15% - this does mean taxes after rate income, or?

Thanks!

Today I get this reply from Kasikorn staff:

To open an account in case that you do not under Thai citizenship, you can contact any Kbank branch. There will be a required minimum deposit of account opening is 500 Baht for Saving Account.

Please submit the required documents as below; 1. Passport 2. Work permit or a copy of House Registration. (Over 3 months) 3. If you have other documents that can prove yourself, we suggest you to try to submit and let our representative consider them. Whether or not, it depends on the branch's consideration to approve your request for opening an account.

What visa did you use to enter Thailand?

Tourist visa - but before to show they told me: no work permit no bank account. And at meantime some thai friends also asked directly and they get the same answer.

Hi All,

maybe a bit stupid question: I was, and asked many bank in BKK if it's possible to open a account with no work permit - but all of them say that is not possible (Kasikorn, Bangkok, CMB, Krungsri...) - and at change many peple say that is possible: so, sorry for this question but where I should go in Bkk to solve this issue, and have a account (with a debit card).

PP = passport (generally - as long as it is not toilet humour )

Thanks!

Yes, read the the post above yours.

Thanks, and sorry that I not readed before.

"No WP needed. Just PP."

What does mean "pp"?

Best regards:

H

Hi All,

just a question: can I open account in Bkk if I have just tourist visa? If yes, where, and how easy it is?

Best regards: H

Hence the Thai phrase: up to you.

Hi guys,

and sorry for off-topic with this question: this phrase, up to you, has some specific sense here, or? Some people say this all the time, and to tell true, it's very boring for me.

Hi All,

thanks for your answers, help - one month, and I will travel to Laos for my 2 entry tourist visa.

Off: I subscribed last year on thaivisa newsletter. Before I get every day, but in last 3-4 weeks just 1-2 times - is any error, or no?

Hm, I'm not sure how long - maximum to September, October. (Can be that in meantime I want to travel in other country for 2-3-4 weeks, but now that is unclear.)

Thanks you advices!

I readed many times something as this: "Stays on Tourist visas do not count towards the 90 days in six months rule." This is still true?

No working, just living - and I thinked also to learn thai, but I not believe that I will stay so much here to learn to speak good thai language, and just for study visa I don't want to start, that is not nice option for me.

Thanks again,

Hi All,

soon will expire my 60 days tourist visa and I will extend with 30 days - but what I should do after this? I searched many website's but I was unable to find sure infos, so the question: after 90 days just simple I need to go out for 1-2-3 days with airplane (or bus) to visit a other country, and come back again and than I can stay 30 days at plus? (In some website's I readed that is not OK now - if in last 6 month I was 90 days than will be not possible this option - is that true, or untrue?)

Thanks!

Thanks.

Any other accomodations, possibilities?

H

Thanks Mac, I will call they...

Any other advices, tipps are also welcome!
