Time to vote with your feet I think!

It most definitely will affect your visa extension. You need a letter from Kbank to say it is an international transfer or funds.

The OP is asking experienced people (humans) for advice not Google AI which is biased and machine based.

He who dares wins!

It's not lazy. They did the unblock the firewall approach. With me being an IT guy from a few years ago I would have done the same. It's easier to manage as this way you can detect a genuine account users. Example, the government did this in the UK with organ donation. YOU have to opt out of the system when you weren't given a choice to join. You would get maybe a few thousand opting out. It's better than asking 68 million people to join. 😆

Remember HSBC fined for money laundering. The reason they shut down your account is so that YOU as a person have got to go to the Bank in person and prove you are a person. Simple!

Been down this road before. The banks and Wise p@ss me off with this crap. Kasikorn do not issue a FET anymore. They will issue a letter stating they are international transfers for 200 Baht to show immigration what they are. The E stands for external not internal. I don't know Wise are doing but they certainly don't follow their name. Swift is a messaging system and a corrupt one at that. No money changes hands by the way. Look it up!

Same here. Tagged as DEP TR F E-CH. Hopefully immigration will understand this as international transfer otherwise it is letter from the bank verifying it is international transfer. It will cost you 200 Baht . (Bank making money again). 😢

Warning to the west about digits ID I think.

A yellow book proves your registered address for foreigners. Blue book is for the owner of the property. They want to know you are not money laundering.
