Our discussion is only about SWIFT transfers which seem to work well, with good exchange rates when sending from Sweden with the currency conversion done before the transfer. Obviously, as we are well aware, using WISE is a better idea from most countries. I guess it is not a complete shock that bank charges and exchange rates vary by country.

Thank you.......

    I've been doing these annual retirement extensions for the past 25 years, never has there been any questions about the money coming from abroad. Just as long as I have 800K THB sitting in a Thai bank

    For future reference always make a transfer in local currency  euro/£ etc and let the Thai bank make the conversion.... you will get a far  better exchange rate.

    Use an agent.  “Seasoning” is something you do to enhance the flavour of food. Only the Thais use it to mean parking your money in a bank for a predetermined period of time. Agents solve all problems,

You understand... an apology is in place here from you...

You have been chit chat with someone re SWIFT.

The thread has references to WISE.

I did one today at midday and yes in Thai bank account in short time.

 

Just for others here is my transfer today as there have been some posts in other threads re time for transfer.
