I used to have a Revolut card but they were adding in a fee in the THB spread so i binned the card, it was hidden, easily missed by those not looking for it 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are various lists out there, and here of course, which list the documents. A search would yield additional details. For the purchase funds I've seen: Credit Advice Receipt(s) Certified bank letter, which summarizes the Qualifying Foreign Transfer(s). Some I've seen have a separate tick box for Condo Purchase https://www.bangkokbank.com/-/media/files/personal/other-services/transfers/buyingcondo.pdf?la=en&hash=688DBBF0954BF058C263618189F3969BB3530BC2 The last post on this thread indicates that WISE transfers "worked". YMMV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prb Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Maybe I have been lucky but I have been successful buying a condo with Wise. I had on my bank book multiple Transfers over the last 2 years to BKKBANK with Wise, all tagged as international. It Was not straightforward, the 1st BKKBANK i've been told me to go to the branch were the account was opened and for them to decide. Lucky me it was in the same city.

Meni Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 (edited) 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? Edited September 8, 2022 by Meni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPGuy Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 This might be of interest to those needing an FET and considering using Wise.
