    Personal Bank Account Required

    Hi, My home country won't allow it. As for Wise. I'm more than a bit reluctant to keep my money there for 6+ months, plus I have a business account with them and I read that it is difficult to open a personal account if you have one. As for why not USA, it's going to sound ridiculous but it's a...

    Personal Bank Account Required

    Hi, I'm looking for a personal bank account where I could transfer money from my US LLC's business account to, hold it there for a few months and then transfer it to my Thai bank account the next year (to take advantage of the Thai territorial tax laws). Preferably: - A brick and mortar bank...

    Mercury account for no US presence

    Hi Fraction. Can you clarify, you have a Wise/XE business account, your international clients send you the money there via SWIFT code and then you transfer it to your US Novel/Relay/Mercury account by domestic wire, correct?

    Hi, This sounds interesting. What are the requirements to open one in Cambodia? Can I just go in with a tourist visa? Thanks

    Basic Personal EMI Bank Account with an online card

    Hi, Paysera is not available in Thailand and while wise are available they don't issue debit cards to Thailand so that defeats the purpose of opening an account with them.

    Basic Personal EMI Bank Account with an online card

    I think that they are only issuing business bank accounts. I actually already have a business bank account with them but I'm looking for a personal bank account to use for personal expenses. I'm a bit reluctant to use my business account for it. Thank you

    Basic Personal EMI Bank Account with an online card

    Hi, I'm an Israeli living in Thailand doing digital marketing. I have a US LLC with a US business account. I'm looking for a personal EMI account to use for online payments.

    Personal EMI with Card for Thailand

    Thanks. So a Delaware LLC with a Mercury account for example? I read that Mercury requires that your clients will be US based which mine are not (at the moment, they might open a US entity soon). I will need a bank account where I can keep most of a my money long term and just transfer the...

    Personal EMI with Card for Thailand

    Yeah 18% is not bad but I kind of feel like an idiot when everyone else pays essentially 0%. Keeping the money in an offshore account and transferring it a year later or just using a card for most transactions will be a legal way of getting the tax rate way down though.

    Personal EMI with Card for Thailand

    It won't be all of it. It will be about 50% of my income and only for 12 months at a time. But I agree, I'm a bit reluctant to try this but I think it will be easier than opening an account at a brick and mortar bank at the moment. If I had 250K I would probably go the Citibank route but I'm not...
