I stand corrected, clearly have been looking at too many bank statements.
I looked back and the test deposit I did is labeled “Trade Finance Deposit”

i am printing the WISE transfer disclosure receipt for each transfer to be included with my paperwork package at the next extension.
Of course I will also request the normal ‘credit advice letter’ from Bangkok Bank to accompany the bank book

I did a test. WISE transfers to Kbank still appear as “Trade Finance Deposit” - same as previous months.
However I will not switch banks mid year and try to explain the potential mess to immigration.
Or even hope to get the desired documentation from both Bangkok Bank & Kbank for partial years deposits
