I’m about to transfer 800k to a Thai bank account for the retirement visa.

Apparently if I use Wise it may not show up as an international transfer?

Should I transfer direct from my bank which is a lot more expensive?

A quick question to all the Kbank users. I’ve not had this account long. I’m just wondering why my transfer from my UK bank to my K bank, says Trade Finance. I’m a little concerned that it has not been set up correctly and when I come to submit statements it will not have international or overseas payment on the statement.

Is a WISE transfer considered an “international transfer”that’s acceptable method to deposit 400k into Thai account for my 1st 1 year marriage extension?

Does anyone know for sure if the 800k sitting in the bank have to be an international transfer.

Receive deposit back without bank account

Hi all. I've been using Wise for paying rent, deposit and such but Thailand is not supported as an account with acc number to receive money transferred from others.

So as my rental contract is ending, Im curious what are the options to receive back my deposit besides in cash (just in case) when I don't have a TL bank account (couldnt open)? If u have experienced this before please let me know.

Thank you in advance!

Is the 65000 measured in 12 monthly payments. I m asking as my September payment went through Wise as a domestic payment and then my account was BBK account was Frozen. Is it okay to make a new payment into my new account even though there’ll be 2 separate payments in October? Thanks

Some advice please if you know the answer.

I have used some of my banked money and my balance has not gone below 400000 baht. I understand that a top up to 800000 + baht is required 3 months prior to application for my extension of stay. My question is does the top up have to show as international or can it be from my other Thai account?

Thanks for valuable help.

Which bank works best with Wise for inward remittance so that it easily shows foreign transfer on the statement. I’m finished with Bangkok Bank. Many thanks.

Update: please state what wise process gives FTT in the Thai bank statement. You will know what I mean if you have direct experience.

Quick question, when you deposit the 800,000 into a Thai bank account do you have to prove it came from overseas like the monthly method or not

65k baht deposit…… for the people using this method instead of the 800k baht. How are you transferring the 65k per month? I have heard if I use Wise, the ACH may not be accepted as proof the funds came from outside of Thailand. Are you using wire transfers every month?
