sibeymai Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 (edited) Transferred some funds out of Thailand today from my personal SCB account and was asked for my work permit. Have never been asked this before. Is this standard practice in the experience of TV members, or something new ?

TheWalkingMan Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 While holidaying in Thailand I once transferred money overseas. They just needed a reason for the the transfer and everything was fine and went through without a problem. This was about 1 year ago.

Siki Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I have been looking into a wire transfer to Australia to make a deposit on a dive trip. The main branch of the Bangkok Bank wanted me to provide evidence of where this money would come from. Asking for evidence of a work permit may be a variation of the same question. I was told that evidence of a cash advance from a credit card would be sufficient. It all seemed quite reasonable. Aloha Siki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
