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

Need some immediate advice regarding the retirement visa.

I just got to Thailand about a week ago and am on the Non-O initial 90 day visa. I plan to sign a one year lease within a week or so, open a Thai bank account immediately after that, and then transfer the 800k baht to the account so I can let it sit there for two months before I apply for the one year extension.

*However I just found out this potential problem:* I already transferred the 800k baht to Wise so I could transfer it to the Thai bank account once I open it, but I heard that using Wise for the 800k baht transfer and not a direct wire transfer from my US bank could cause immigration to deny my one year extension. Has anyone encountered this issue? If I don't use Wise and just wire transfer another 800k baht from my US bank will that make everything ok?

I am utterly confused and appreciate any advice on this, 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?

If you have a retirement visa and 800,000 baht in a Thai bank account and decide to leave Thailand permanently, can I easily transfer that 800,000 baht back to my bank account in Belgium? I've heard it's not easy. Does anyone have experience with this?
