Can I use Wise for the 65k monthly deposit to meet my Thailand visa requirements?

Is it possible to set up 65k baht monthly automatic transfers from Wise to a Thai bank to meet the visa requirements?

Get a Thai statement and you see if it’s ok.

Sending from Wise to my kasikorn account explicitly shows “foreign” but only in Thai, not in English version.

I transfer monthly to Bangkok Bank from Wise and the transactions are flagged as FTT ( foreign telegraph transaction ).

Start last April and will submit extension application nect month based on the 65k per month. Yet to see if it will work out.

I intend to submit bank verified statements for the tear in addition to the bank book and monthly pension documentation.

I also have the 800k sitting in a separate account in case this does to work

Regarding Wise… 35/guide-to-thb-transfers

If you've just got a new extension it is too late to start your 65k international transfers as you need at least 12 months of deposits at the time of your new extension application. Your only hope is that your Embassy still does the income affidavit.

Use Wise select reason as long stay,you’ll need 12 full

Months so I hope you already started

I asked Wise to Tag My Account as always needing transfers tagged as international or ftt. I also use long term stay in Thailand as reason for transfer. I transfer to Bangkok Bank and for 16 months there has been no issue. Both my banking app and bank book show ftt transfers. Transfers to other banks were hit and miss. Swift transfers resulted in my uk current account being closed!

Remember your 0 baht must be in your account for three months after getting your extension and must not fall below 0 baht for the rest of the year. This is to meet the requirements of your current extension. Once you have the 12 monthly International transfers to your thai bank you can apply for your next extension using them and release the other 0 baht. I have just done it and the only complication was that they wanted my uk bank statements to prove where the transfers had come from. It took over an hour for them to check payments out matched payments in. They did not not ask for Wise transfer documents. I also had to provide a copy of my bank book with a transaction on the day which I got from the bank. Nothing else was required from the bank as they accepted the statements I printed out myself ordered from the banking app.

It all went very smoothly but some offices do not accept monthly transfers so make sure you check yours does. I hope that helps and good luck.

I have not done that but I do have an Aust$ account at Bangkok bank into which I transfer A$ from my pension.

Maybe doable

Do you currently have 800k in your thai bank account or are you using an agent to provide that?

Just transfer with wise and under reason, choose funds for long stay in Thailand and it will show as an international transfer on your bank statement.

It’s likely your embassy won’t confirm this income and therefore immigration won’t accept it. YMMV

Will likely work, but it's hard to beat that 800k all but guaranteeing your stay here will be trouble free. One glitch in the system and you got problems..

I know Kasikorn and Bangkok will show oversea transfers. Make sure to select correct reason for sending money.

Just pondering that that same question myself.
