I applied through the London embassy, but they did not accept my Wise account statement. They require a bank statement from a local branch with an official stamp, along with either my tax return or a letter from my accountant. They didn’t specify what my accountant needs to include in the letter. 

Does anyone know how much time I have to gather and upload these documents to their website? Also if my documents don’t meet their expectations, will my visa be rejected immediately or will they ask me to submit additional documents?

Thanks!

Answer summary

The user applied for a Thai visa through the London embassy but faced issues with their Wise account statement not being accepted. They need to provide a local bank statement with an official stamp, along with either a tax return or a letter from their accountant. Commentary suggests the accountant's letter should include details about earnings and taxes paid. The user has 14 days to submit the required documents, and while failure to meet expectations may lead to a request for resubmission, immediate rejection is unlikely. The discussion highlights discrepancies regarding the acceptance of Wise versus other financial institutions.

Getting a branch stamp is unusual. I applied with Revolut and was accepted

They even asked for an e-ticket to Thailand. I read in this group that they accept Wise, but yeah, each embassy has different rules

Anonieme deelnemer It is mentioned several times in this group that Wise not is a bank and therefore not always accepted.

Indeed some embassies seem to accept it sometimes, which might be their own rules or just a slight mistake, since Wise is not a bank, and therefore should not be accepted by any embassy.

@Ray ****

it depends where you apply and the status of Revolut in the country you use it. Revolut obtained a banking licence in the UK last year. Wise is not a bank.

If they do not meet expectations they will very likely ask again . Applicants have been asked several times for documentation until approval criteria are met.

You have 14 days. The accountant simply needs to certify the account is accurate and yours.

Also I couldn’t find any information on their website stating that I have 14 days. Could you please share where you found that? Thanks

Does he need to declare my income and the taxes I've paid as well?

Anonymous participant it states that applications will be automatically deleted if not submitted within 14 days. The same goes for unanswered document requests. Nothing official, just experience from observations.
