Things are a hell of a lot easier in Thailand when you have a Thai ATM card and an account to transfer money into.
But despite the visa opening an account can be a nightmare.
So before you trudge around town and get frustrated as hell, read this post and see which bank is most likely to work best for your situation.
We recommend this Bank coz it has a foreigner friendly call center and a mobile app which can do everything you could do at a bank branch ,but the documents are the same for any other 6 banks as well.
Kasikorn Bank (K-Bank)
Requirements:
Individuals who have base in foreign countries:
- Passport
- Work permit NON B visa
For any assistance our staff is ready to accompany you to a branch nearest to you and is expat friendly or get you into the CBD which has most branches who accept foreigners with work visas. You only need to visit a branch while opening a account.
All other activities can be done on net banking or a mobile app or calling the 24×7 callcenter who have good English operators.
You have to be aware that the Bank send all types of alerts on a local som card phone or in the app notifications and email. Certain actions like adding a 3rd party account for funds transfer in the favorites needs a local sim phone only and if you are overseas you need to have the roaming on your Thai number or wait till you are back or do it before you leave.
