It's unclear how long the immigration accepts this way.

If you want to stay long term in Thailand you shouldn't go the legal limbo way.

You need a Thai bank account for a non-o application in Thailand.

How can you apply for a non-o?

Convert a tourist visa to an non-o by tm.7.

It is now almost impossible to open a bank account with a tourist visa.

Maybe by using a visa agent it's still possible.

You can change from non-oa to non-o when you are in Thailand and opened a bank account.

People here say KBank doesn't have FTT. FTT is the code from BBL.

People here say "Trade Finance Deposit" is the code from KBank and accepted from immigration.

In one month I will extend my visa in Khon Kaen. I will ask them.

I said one time from my Wise THB balance. This is not Swift.

I sent 2 times money to the KBank account of my partner. About 48k Baht each.

One direct from my international USD account and one from my Wise THB balance.

Both are declared as "Trade Finance Deposit".

The Thai statement translated shows something like "money from international".
