Answer summary
The post shares a success story about obtaining a DTV visa within two weeks, and several comments discuss the use of Wise (formerly TransferWise) for paying rent directly to landlords in Thailand. Many users confirm that they pay their rent using Wise, especially if they do not have a Thai bank account. They mention the transaction fees and the speed of the payment process. Some concerns are raised about Wise's transition to a localized Thai entity and its implications for remittances and taxation, with users discussing the importance of keeping track of transactions for legal reasons.
