@Bill ******
this tag is an internal transfer between Thai Banks.

If your transfer was routed through Kasikorn Bank and then to Bangkok Bank. I believe you will need the following.

I did this this week for the September transfer. For the rest of the year I will do SWIFT transfers to avoid this potential problem.

1. An FET letter from K-bank International Services. K-bank will likely ask you to bring a receipt for the deposit from Bangkok bank first.

2. Bangkok Bank will only provide the receipt from the branch where the account was opened.

At least two branches here in Bangkok told me that I needed to drive to Buriram where I opened the original account to get this receipt.

thats is exactly the label you need

FOREIGN T/T

My problematic September deposit was labeled

DEP TRF FR E-CH

This is a local Thai bank to Thai bank transfer.

I went to the intermediate Bank - Kasikorn International Services and requested a FET form to attach to my extension package June 2026

@Tim *****
well that is not what the IO told me at Chaeng Watthana when I extended in June 2025.

She specifically said (and wrote down on a note) that next year I must bring a ‘Credit Advice Letter’ proving that I have made 12 monthly foreign transfers from my home country, minimum amount of ฿65,000 each.

yes, but in the WISE case it just started being a problem Sep 2025.

I Went through the confirmation process you suggest this week to secure documentation for my SEP 2025 international transfer.

@Graham *****
you need your transfer to be labeled as arriving from a foreign source. So far that has worked correctly for me when transferring WISE to Kashikorn

@Phil *****
the only WISE to Bangkok Bank transfer I received in under a minute in the last 2 years was last months which was rerouted 1st through Kasikorn Bank.

Then not labeled as a foreign transfer at Bangkok Bank
