I'm USA citizen, 26 years old, what documents require to rent a house, to open a bank account in Bangkok Bank and to register cell phone under my name?

Your passport will suffice.

Neither renting a house nor opening a bank account should pose a problem but unless the rules have changed recently, I don't think you can register a cell phone in your name without a work permit ("register" meaning a postpaid account). The simplest route for obtaining a cell phone number is a prepaid number. Otherwise, get a Thai friend to register the number in their name (the bill can be sent directly to you).

Thanks for info, if I have company in USA, can open another branch in Thailand ?

If yes, then am I will be able to get a work permit ?

You can set up a company in Thailand with or without a company abroad. There are people around this board that specialize in helping people with just that but if your reason for wanting a work permit is merely to register a phone in your name, don't even consider this any further. A quick search through the board should give you an idea of the scope of what would be involved in setting up a Thai company.

Thank you, I will try to contribute some info as I finish reading books about thai laws adn doing business in Thailand, I hope that I'm doing this not only for myself.

Cheers
