I've been using direct bank to bank transfer (via bank TT SWIFT method) for a couple years now without problem, with no fees charged at the K-bank end. It is only this recent transfer that it was changed to being a bahtnet deposit into my K-bank account.

I may have to consider changing to Wise. Can I ask how the Wise deposit is remarked in the transfer channel" on the K-bank transaction info/statement? I.e. is it "internet/across bank" with supplementary details on the transferor bank.

@Tore *******

That's a good question!

On the bahtnet transfer as shown in my K-bank mobile app, it does not provide any info on who was the transferor. I guess this would require going to bank itself to ask if they can provide documentary proof that this particular incoming transfer originated from overseas and from whom, so that it would be acceptable to thai immigration.

@Claude ******

Thanks for this fee info.

Any idea if this bahtnet process was just recently implemented by K-bank?

Because last month I had made a similar transfer from the same transferring bank to K-bank and it did not get processed and deposited through bahtnet.

I am also from HKG and may need to do a 60-day tourist visa.

Are you doing your application completely online? Or do you need to visit the consulate for them to check your application documents?
