Hi another daft question which im sure I have seen the answer on here already but can't seem to find it. So when depositing money k800 for retirement visa through Wise what should I put the reason down as?

I seem to remember there's a particular way to show it's an international deposit.

Thanks in advance
Answer summary
When making a deposit of K800 for a retirement visa in Thailand using Wise, it's important to specify the reason clearly. Users have noted that it's best to indicate it as a 'long-term stay in Thailand' or choose the appropriate option from the Wise dropdown menu. Additionally, if the funds are transferred from a local Thai bank, it may not appear as an international transfer. It's recommended to confirm this with Wise directly.

I use wise also, but the money for me normally gets transferred from their kasikorn bank here in Thailand, so it doesn't show as an international transfer,

Best to message wise to confirm it can be shown as an international transfer.
