WorriedNoodle Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) I have an account at Global Citi but it costs 25USD a month, no minimum balance, for just holding my money. There are some advantages as I can do free ACH wire transfers from it at least and it keeps my funds I don't need in Thailand offshore. So any other choices like this perhaps less than 25USD month fees or is that par for the course these days? I already have free Wise accounts but they don't always get allowed for transferring funds to brokers so looking at real bricks and mortar type banks? What do you use in this case? I am non US passport. Edited November 14, 2023 by WorriedNoodle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailand J Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) Have you look into Interactive Brokers and Charles Schwab International account? Interactive Brokers account has no minimum to open and no monthly fee. First withdrawal of the month is free and it can be wire transfer or ACH, after the first it's $1 per ACH and $10 per wire. Thai address is acceptable and you can receive OTP on a Thai phone number. You can transfer from Wise to IB if this youtube video content is true: Edited November 14, 2023 by Thailand J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience, Wise to IBKR is very quick, but IBKR to Wise takes a few days. That's for GBP. Other currencies may be different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
