Can I send money to a Thai account using Wise and have it labeled as an international transfer for a long-term visa?

WISE offers an option to chose, so it shows as coming from abroad

Normaly yes but yesterday and 1 day before yesterday, it did not show 'international transfer' on my bangkok bank account. I am sure I selected 'funds for long stay in Thailand'. There was such a problem before.

when i send money from australia to thailand with wise , it always comes up on my bangkok bank statement as international, just done $10k aus and that is what it said !been doing it for years , so your chat GPT AI is a liar !

Wise is good and convenient for small amounts. Otherwise trasfer from your bank abroad to your bank in Thailand.

I opened an account with SCB last week and transferred my 800k into my account via wise. wise use Kasikorn bank as an intermediary bank so my transfer was not recorded as a FET with SCB. My Wise receipt shows the trail from Wise, Kasikorn and the SCB.

It asks specifically if your transfer needs to be shown as international. Obviously select yes, and you should get the following day at 2pm, or the Monday if done over the weekend

Anyone have experience with Revolut Bank in this case

Just a quick one, I've noticed on my monthly Bangkok bank statement that it says DEP TRF FR E-CH it used to say international funds transfer and yes I choose for retirement in Thailand on wise what is going on I've tried different options on menu drop down but still comes up the same

You can, do it every month.

Who would trust A i

Well you find in Thailand there are two realities The official reality and the reality reality. last year there were a number of changes in the banking system and all banks were to become unable to easily report international transfers. Swift transfer from the United States was offered as the only option for transferring funds and having them accepted and properly noted in the bank accounts. The first thing I noticed with moving from wise to moving to Swift, was a tripling of fees by Swift for the same amount of money sent through wise. an additional problem was adding a layer of documentation did not make my process of renewing my one year non-o visa any easier. despite and postings to the opposite I continue to do my transfers with wise through Bangkok Bank and find Bangkok Bank does a paperwork exactly the way immigration wants to see it. for me this is a win-win until the rules getting forced and wise can no longer transfer directly to my Bangkok bank account.

When people want accurate information it's best to ask the question of the agency/bank.

Ask wise. Not chatgpt. I've just sent money " long term stay in Thailand, Wise gives option to ask for foreign transfer confirmation.

There are options in Wise which you select. For reason for transfer select "Funds for long term stay in Thailand" and select yes for "Will you require proof of Foreign Exchange Transaction"

Confirmed.. during the transfer there are two drop downs that you can use to show this.

Yes just check reason for transfer as Funds for long stay

Chat GPT is wrong.

The only reason you need the funds to show as international is if you are using the monthly income method. Wise can't guarantee that each transfer will be coded correctly, but there are ways around it using the paper trail.
