I thought opening a bank account if you had a non-O immigrant visa was easy

@Adam *******
they offered that to me about a week ago. Tomorrow, I will see if that offer still holds.

you might not know the answer to this, but do I need to be in Cambodia to apply for the visa from the Thai embassy in Cambodia? Or could I be in Thailand and apply online and then go pick it up? But I guess I would need to be there to give them the documents, right

@Andy ***********
probably the best plan. Any idea where would be the place to get one the fastest?

@Darrel ********
problem is I am in Thailand now. I will be taking a trip to Cambodia for about five days in early March. Wondering if I should try to apply at the Thai embassy in Cambodia and get the non-oh from there or should I come back to Thailand and start a new 60 day visa exempt and try to get the non-o while in Thailand

@Brandon ***********
is that something I would be able to get the day I go to the Embassy? For example, if I fly to Phnom Penh, will it take many days to get it or will I get the visa that day?

So you can get a bank account if you are on Non-O Immogrsnt visa.

But to get Non-O you have to already HAVE a bank account!

I did not realize I was supposed to get the non-immigrant visa when I was still in USA . Sorry I’m here on Visa exempt.

What do I do!

I will be able to meet the qualifications for a retirement visa

how much will an agent charge to help open the bank account? Do you know any reputable ones in Karon Beach or Patong?
