Re: Need some advice about Cambodia

I want to open a bank account in April when i head up,
In April i want open account but will be n a tourist visa, am moving up in July when will get the ordinary visa/extension.
Can i just get my gf's sister to write up a rental contract saying i am renting from her and staying at their home ?

Re: Need some advice about Cambodia
I opened a bank account with ABA 3 months ago after getting thoroughly annoyed with what used to be ANZ. I needed to show an official rental contract, duly fingerprinted and all.phuketrichard wrote: ↑Sat Feb 08, 2020 1:39 pm question for anyone

Re: Need some advice about Cambodia

was it only between u an the house owner, ie no official involved

The contract is in Siem Reap and I am in Sa Pa. It was just the contract between me and the owner. I guess it going back 5 years helped.
Re: Need some advice about Cambodia
If you wnat to spend your whole life queing open an ABA account. they are victims of their own success. too many customers not enough staff and the ATM machines are so slow its torture. You may now need to produce a lease or even an officila Sangkat registry paper to open a bank account. I was asked for a lease at prasac 2 weeks ago and I already have an account with them. Recent rule change. No idea how many places it affects. i think you cna now open a wing account and use that to get money from Thai to Cambodia. Might be cheaper than banks

Re: Need some advice about Cambodia
Wings partner in OS tranfers > Ismail Ahmed, founder and CEO at WorldRemit, commented: ‘This partnership will allow the hard-working Cambodian diaspora to send money back home to family and friends in the most convenient way possible.’
Ok maybe convenient. but does anybody know how Wing/WorldRemit's exchange rates and fees stack up?
please
They reckon the new blockchain technology will soon blow this whole transfer scam right out of the water.
Any informed info?
