yeah it was processed as international but apparently the stated purpose was wrong.

He was in a branch in Bangkok and they declined to issue the confirmation letter. Wondering if this might vary from branch to branch, depending on the competence/mood of the bank officer in charge.

Asking for a friend who has to deal with getting an FET/confirmation letter from Kasikorn Bank. Has anyone received a credit advice from Kasikorn Bank showing the purpose as "private sector grants" for a transfer through Wise, even though "purchase of property" was selected as the purpose in Wise? Was it still possible to get an FET/confirmation letter for the purchase of a condo?

If anyone has a contact for motorbike rentals for the peak 10-11 Dec Music Festival period, please let me know! Seems many are fully booked already...

Yes it states all that you have mentioned, just not the currency exchange. Or rather, it states that the "exchange" was 1:1 - i.e. THB to THB.

Thanks for this. I managed to get an FET from Bangkok Bank for a Wise transfer, but it doesn't state that the money has been converted from a foreign currency. Was it the same in your case? Do you know if the Land Department will want to see the Wise transfer slip (containing info regarding the exchange rate, etc) or is the FET enough?

I had posted in a similar thread but perhaps this would be a better thread for my queries. Any insight would be much appreciated. Is it possible, and has anyone successfully managed, to get a condo unit transferred to you at the Land Department with an overseas transfer where the conversion to THB was done abroad and not in Thailand? That is to say, the bank abroad sent THB to Thailand via SWIFT, rather than a foreign currency (to then be converted to THB in Thailand). It seems possible for the bank to issue a credit note/confirmation letter according to this site, but I just wanted to find out if anyone had had any personal experience getting a condo unit transferred with such a credit note/confirmation letter. Have you had, or do you know anyone who had, any experience with the Land Department accepting a FET/letter based on a Wise Transfer?

I have a slightly different but related question on the FET. Is it possible, and has anyone successfully managed, to get a condo unit transferred to you at the Land Department with an overseas transfer where the conversion to THB was done abroad and not in Thailand?

It seems possible for the bank to issue a credit note/confirmation letter according to this site, but I just wanted to find out if anyone had had any personal experience getting a condo unit transferred with such a credit note/confirmation letter. On another note, what about Wise - has anyone had success getting a condo unit transferred with a credit note/confirmation letter issued by a bank based on a Wise transfer?
