For those who are thinking of investing in foreign currency FD and don't mind doing so in the domestic banks, I think RHB MCA account is really a good option.
Do you know if RHB MCA or any MCA can be used to receive Google Adsense income specifically? Wise doesn't work for me, and I am getting high inward TT / conversion fee on local currency bank account.

I see no reason why u can't. Go ahead and open RHB MCA account

I actually sent an email to inquire, and it recommended me to open a Non-Export Proceeds Account (NEPA) MCA account. Now I am not sure if an individual is able to open it, or if it has to be a company. I have already sent another email to ask, or if I can't wait, I will go directly to the branch. Thanks for your reply nonetheless.

Of course individual can open it.

When I open at an RHB branch, I can select between the two options. INDA or NEPA.

https://www.rhbgroup.com/personal/deposits/...ount/index.html

Clearly stated here on the website too. INDA/NEPA

Just go an RHB branch and open it.

Link 404.

The working link: https://www.rhbgroup.com/personal/deposits/...view/index.html only got 2 types there - EDEA and INDA.

The links mentioned NEPA https://www.rhbgroup.com/islamic/deposits/m...ount/index.html and https://www.rhbgroup.com/business/sme-banki...ount/index.html stated it was for non-individuals or companies.

That's why I am a bit confused. FYI, currently PBB required invoice / receipt each time when there is foreign inward TT, it doesn't come automatically, so I think I better clarify with RHB's policy first.

It's best that u just go a branch and talk to RHB rep.

Even if only non-individual is allowed to do that, what's stopping you from incorporate as an enterprise or LLP?

If your income from AdSense is getting significant every month, perhaps it makes more sense to incorporate?

Business account / NEPA got no debit card and thus no special counter rate.

Anyway, I opened an individual account and try to see if I can receive the payment, the staff got no idea as well.
