thaidiver Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hi- I'm coming back to. Thailand next month, bringing cash, and need a bank that lets you open an account with a Tourist visa only. I might be transferring money from the US as well, so I need a bank that doesn't charge outrageous fees. I know you've all heard this one before. Help Please!

twschw Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 You can try Kasikorn but things have tightened up lately. Goodluck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattayaParent Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I second Kasikorn. A mate of mine opened an account with them on a Saturday morning at the branch in Royal Garden Plaza, 30 day stamp in his passport and no letter from Immigration required. BUT different branches may have different rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icequeen Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Got my bank account with Siam commercial bank in Pattaya in December with a 30 day stamp on arrival, no problems - no questions asked. Did have a thai address to give which may have helped but wasn't asked for any proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
