It still depends on your bank. I've had a TMB/Ttb account since the early 1990s. Today I tried to make a Wise transfer to pay my rent and got the message "The recipient bank currently does not support cross border remittances". So TTb is still not on the list of preferred banks. Does anyone know if this is a legal/formal change or a work in progress thing? I guess I will have to get a new bank account with all the inconvenience that involves. Pah!

Does anyone have relevant recent experience on the following? The welcome page for the eVisa site now says "Health insurance(s) are required only for Special Tourist Visa (STV), and Long-Stay Visas (Non-Immigration OA and OX) applications." I am trying to apply for the 90 day 'O' based on retirement. However as part of the the application process there is a requirement to upload the policy document from a Thai insurance company for the 40,000/400,000 health cover. Is this now redundant? And what does one upload instead; a copy of the quoted eVisa statement perhaps. I will be applying to London. Any sugestion appreciated.
