Using Thai retirement visa papers to open offshore account

[hullmonkey1]

Not sure if this is the correct forum for this question, but does anyone have any experience of opening an offshore account using their Thai retirement visa documentation to prove place of residence? I am a UK citizen but will have no connections to the UK property-wise in a month or so and plan to retire in Thailand. 

 

Thanks in advance

You would use some standard document showing your Thai address.  What is acceptable would be at discretion of each financial institution.  Best to contact the bank you want to open an account with.

 

Schwab will accept ID cards, utility bills, bank statements with your name and local address, and will have the document translated if not in English.

 

With Schwab, my wifi used her Thai ID card, I used a bank statement from a US credit union.
