you could be very right, while the Thai bank exchange rate is not so fantastic, yet it would beat any poor rate an American bank will offer

actually WISE also takes a fee, which could be higer than the 35 USD fee your American bank takes. It depends on the amount you wish to transfer. WISE however will use a better exchange rate. You need to compare the Fee-excluded (!) WISE exchange rate to the rate your American bank offers. Check out the WISE website for the payment methods, as they offer several ones, and the one using a bank-to-bank transfer offers the lowest fee

your name on the birth certificate might not be enough of a proof of your fathership. Generally speaking, a fathership must be acknowldeged by a Thai Family Court. You can try your luck, ask Immigration, bring your wife and the kid, so maybe they accept the birth certificate as a single proof

well, you have two options: You can ask for a "touristic extension" which will get you 30 more days. However, if you have a proof that you are the legitimite father of a half Thai child, you can get a 60-days extension based on "family visit"

when you enter Thailand on a 60-days single entry Tourist Visa, you will get stamped in for a 60-days stay permit as a tourist. These 60 days you can extend once, for 1900.- THB on Immigration for 30 more days (it is called "30-days touristic extension"). And then you will have to leave Thailand before the 90th day is over by midnight. You cannot get any "extension based on visiting my girlfriend", there is nothing such

nein, natürlich ist es nicht legitim, aber wir sind hier in Thailand, und Korruption ist hier weit verbreitet. Mit Geld erreicht man solche Dinge. Tausende von Expats, welche die 800,000 nicht auf ein thailändisches Konto legen wollen, benutzen die Agenturen
