sleepy99 Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I am considering switching my bank from Bangkok Bank to Kasikorn Bank. I usually use WISE to transfer around 3000 USD per transaction. How long does this amount usually takes to arrive in Kasikorn Bank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbra Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 (edited) I have been using Wise for several years now,on 1 occasion the transfer took 20 minutes. From Australia mostly instantaneous Edited February 14, 2023 by norbra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is usually if you have selected 'for long term stay' or 'buying property in Thailand'. Most other times it is almost instant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just posted in your other thread that there's a 100,000 THB cut off point from it being almost immediate to it taking the long route. My example there showed it being initiated in GBP but the same seems true for USD. I have no personal experience of Kasikorn.

When you open new account use your passport names to prevent ongoing verification checks by Wise Edited February 14, 2023 by norbra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
