Hello….

Not visa related but an inquiry involving money transfers.

I am currently living in the Philippines and hold some Philippine Peso.

I was wondering if it would be better to exchange here for US Dollars and bring them with me instead of peso….not sure as means exchanging twice !!

Hi to all UK expats .

I’m retiring to Thailand next year and need any advice from you on which are the best uk banks to hold an account for when I no longer live in the uk ( for private pension to be paid into plus savings) I already have a Thai bank account and property.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I just found out that my UK bank (Co-op) only facilitates foreign money transfers by telephone, so possibly time to move my accounts, any expats recommend any particular banks for online transfers? I use Wise for small amounts but I'm thinking of the 800k and monthly 65k, can I use Wise for those?

Hi folks, I’m trying to get some advise on money transfers from the US to a Thai bank account. What US banks have you had the best success with? Or what transfer app do you suggest? My existing banks either have have low exchange rates or do not do international transfers and cannot connect to WISE so far. Suggestions?

Do money transfers from a US Bank using WISE show as a foreign transfer into a Thai bank account?

Not visa related but already got good advice in the group. We are returning and arriving May 6th. Had applied and was approved for test and go. Hotel is refunding all but the room rate. My question is about bringing and depositing a certified check. We just sold property in the US. How long normally, from experience does it take for banks to clear and have monies into your account? I'm thinking this is more cost effective that depositing in the US and transferring monies.

Have anyone transferred on a regular basis money from a Thai bank to an overseas bank?

What are the ways except PayPal ? Fees I and limitations imposed by thai banks to do so?
