ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The acceptability of showing 500,000 THB in a WISE account for visa-related purposes in Thailand varies by embassy. While some individuals report that WISE accounts have been accepted, there are concerns about the legitimacy and recognition of WISE as a bank for this purpose. Many commenters suggest that traditional banks are preferred or required, especially for immigration processes. If the funds are in Thai Baht and shown in an acceptable format, it may improve chances of acceptance, but the consensus leans towards traditional banks being safer for proving finances to immigration authorities.
