Hi a relative newbie here.
I arrived from UK on Saturday on non o Visa
I have obtained certificate of residence from immigration and today was successful in opening a bank account with Krungthai Bank.
What is the correct way to transfer the 800,000 ?
Can I just do it from my UK bank direct to Krungthai bank?
Thanks in advance

A user who recently arrived in Thailand on a Non-O visa has opened a bank account with Krungthai Bank and is seeking advice on how to transfer 800,000 baht from their UK bank account. Multiple comments suggest it is possible to conduct a direct bank transfer, with options like Wise for potentially lower fees, although the standard SWIFT transfer is recommended for reliability.
