I recently got approved marriage non-o 90 day. From laos took less than 48 hours after payment which was suprising.

But is it straight forward with this type of visa to open a bank when in thailand? The thing i wonder if different branches have different requirements and say different things.. Which i have heard people say, but i really hope not i would need to jump between banks.. Any recent information about this?

I want to open kasikorn bank.

Having a non-immigrant visa, you will be able to open a bank account. You will most likely need supporting documents besides your passport with the visa, such as a secondary form of ID (e.g. an ID card or driving license from your home country) and a Certificate of Residence from your local immigration office in Thailand.

If you let us know where you're located / which immigration office you'll use, someone may be able to give you more specific advice. Some bank branches are more accommodating than others, but in general, Kasikorn Bank is an excellent choice and you should be able to open an account with them.

Good advice from @Caldera

Recently read a report on AN of fella same deal as OP... Non O eVisa 90 day stamp and was able to open account with Kasikorn having the Non O + had TDL and something from passport country (possibly a DL).

Notably he did not obtain a COR.

Depends on the branch.

Avoid BBL

Dont have an ID card from my home country unfortunetly or driver license, but i do have a thai driver license though, if that makes any difference but my old passport number is on it might need to renew it if so.

It will be Chonburi immigration and some kasikorn branch there i guess would be more convenient.

But i wonder what even is the logic why they would need it anything else from my home country though. Would be silly if i got denied based on that.. Is the ID requirement mostly about Kasikorn Bank?

If you have a Non O visa then go into a bank and ask what they require to open a bank account. That is the only sure way of finding out. People will offer advice , but going in person is the only sure way of finding out.

I had to provide my passport with my Non O visa , my Thai driving licence , my U.K driving licence , my Thai phone number , my wifes I.D card and her Tabien Baan.

This was last month in Kasikorn Bank Udon Thani.

You will need a 'certificate of residence' from Jomtien immigration...

to get that you also need to report your address to them TM30 , with the certificate of residence and your passport

you should then be able to open a Kasikorn bank account...no need for drivers licence IMHO.
