I agree I’ve been going to Thailand for the past 30+ years and for better or for worse I’m staying at the moment I’m in the UK

@Tony ********

good advice and learn the Language

Have you thought of joining the Elite club ? Makes life easier

Your 72 hour start when you receive the results of your Coronavirus (COVID-19) Test results

No

Question 1 you can transfer money from your UK account without paying any fees in the UK HSBC Bank FirstDirect Bank I think all banks allow you to do this I would always transfer ££ so it’s converted into ฿ when it arrives in Thailand

Any UK social payments like pensions can be paid into a Thai account but that would be unwise as any future pension increases will not be paid to you check it out on the gov webpage

I’ve been Transferring money from my UK account for the past 10 years and I’ve never had a problem

My only advice is if it’s your first time only transfer a small amount of money to begin with and once you know the money has arrived then there’s no reason why you can not send more

Once you open a bank account in Thailand you can send directly from your UK account free of any fees to your Thai account you will need the SWIFT Code and account number

Yes I did with a tourist visa Bangkok Bank
