Hello all, I am planning to apply for the workation DTV in Hong Kong. I have the 500K in the bank and a remote work contact. However, I mostly get paid via Wise and Alipay for my remote job. Can I just show screenshots of the transactions of those apps for my proof of income? Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks

Slightly off topic but a segment off requirements for a long term extension. I am UK based passport bank account etc. For transferring the required sums I have hit a brick wall with my bank. They do not send money to Thailand. I am looking for recommendations for a 3rd party way, any recommendations from people in the same situation would be very much appreciated

Hi Guys, opened my two bank accounts yesterday with KASIKORNBANK in Hua Hin and now want to fund them. First to transfer money to a savings account..and a mimimum of 800k bht then transferring from there to a Fixed Deposit Account which pays some low interest, about 1%, but better than nothing. The minimum 800k bht to stay in that account to satisfy Non O immigrant requirement.

I have been having a nightmare trying to transfer money from my UK Lloyds account..with also exorbitant transfer costs. So transferred some money from my Wise account just to see the difference. The Wise transaction was done in seconds and at a good rate of 43.5bht / £.

I am now thinking of doing the balance with Wise but understand there may be issues in the future.(?). So would appreciate any advice?

And btw: didn’t need to go to immigration at all. Just took my owner documents, blue book etc., together with my passport and that was enough evidence for them to open my accounts. Thank you.

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.

Regarding the wise transfers to bkk bank now coded as something other than the previous FTT code. I downloaded the wise invoice pdf which clearly shows it was as n international transfer. However i think is best to start doing wise as a swift transfer to avoid any confusion. Comments?

Hi, just wondering if anyone has found an efficient method of moving money from Canada to Thailand?

I've just been using ATMs, but the fees are high, and also found bank transfers to be just as costly

Anyone know what's going on with wise.

I transfer money using wise into my Bangkok bank I mark it as long term for retirement but when I check my Bangkok bank account it shows up as DEP TRF FR E-CH not international transfer. Has something changed with Wise because before it would show up correctly. Also will immigration except it when going for visa renewal

Thanks

Recently tried to send money to family through wise. Never had problems before. But last transaction refused. Wise say it's because Thailand has changed banking rules. Your name from sending account has to match bank account name in account Thailand. How can you resolve this is the question?
