Looking for easy remote option to open a bank account for myself to transfer dividends and salary from my Hong Kong company account , I can deposit 300k USD right away , my company revenue is from legit affiliate marketing operation, currently residing in Thailand , any suggestions? Thanks in advance. (can't use wise)
 
currenxie does not offer private banking, Revolut does not work with Thai residents , Also I am looking for a real bank, not a fintech

You can have a look at Paxum Bank or Zenus Bank.

Check out the bigger retail banks in Singapore, Hong Kong, and even Malaysia (Labuan). Banks like UOB, OCBC, Maybank, DBS, Citibank, CIMB, and Standard Chartered.

You qualify for premium banking options with many banks there and they are generally comfortable with Thai residents.

I wouldn't say account opening will be easy. It'll be a thorough inspection of yourself and your finances.

This is the probably the answer to your question.

Do you have any recommendation or experiences with Labuan (individual and/or corporate accounts), having an offshore company there (instead of HK or SG for example ..) ?
 
Charles Schwab USA, 25k minimum deposit and 0 fees.

It's a brokerage account with banking capabilities.

Why not open a HKD account in Kasikorn and then every time you want THB they will convert it in branch?

My experience in Labuan has mainly been corporate banking. Whenever the topic has been brought up, though, the banks have been willing to discuss opening personal accounts for directors and shareholders. However, I don't know/recall if they domicile those accounts in mainland Malaysia or in Labuan.

You have a US bank account number with SWIFT code to receive payments and you can also receive through ACH if you request checks.

Agreed.
OP even may be able to open remotely with UOB SG, Standard Chartered SG/HK, CIMB SG/KH (Cambodia USD account), Maybank SG/KH as these banks have branches in Bangkok that could meet you in person and endorse your supporting documentation.
