Thanks for the advise on my last question. We've got another. I've seen lots on here with people recommending Wise for the transfer of money into a Thai bank account. I've also looked at just doing a wire from my bank account. I may be missing something but it seems cheaper doing it that way. Here's my calculations:
Wise - first I assume wise takes the money from my bank by ACH so there is no cost there. Moving $25000 usd Wise will cost about $150. My Thai bank will charge 250 baht to accept the wire.
Wire from my bank - it costs $15 for the wire, my Thai bank converts it at the bank standard rate which is fairly consistent. Today's rate for such a transfer was only about 1000 baht difference, about $30. So the cost is about $45, and the Thai bank will again charge the 250 baht wire fee.
