What are the best alternatives for transferring money from the UK to Thailand for visa requirements?

Sure you are with a proper bank? The mainstream banks should all be able to transfer money. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I can assure you that I am not colour blind and that my blue book is the same colour as my UK passport. However, to be legal, it has to be held in conjunction with property title deeds in my name.

Yep thanks Graham, understand that. But have heard that if money is transferred from Wise, and not by Swift Bank transfer, that there could be problems. Or is what i’ve heard incorrect?

What do I need to know about applying for a Thai retirement visa from the UK?

Richard *********

It took about 4 weeks and yes they did come back for additional information. The information related to proof of having the money…and the problem for me was sending the proof on their small gb of data. However, I did manage, with some help, to eventually send it. We put it in a ‘File’ and zipped it. Problem solved!

What should I do regarding my arrangements if I pass away while living in Thailand?

Do not worry. Police and Temple will take care. Body will be cremated. Monks will hold service. If money available the cost is about 5000 baht per day..usually 2 days. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
