TRANSFER OF THB FROM BANGKOK BANK to CHF of my Swiss Cantonal Bank ?
Hello Swiss expatriates!
I am thinking of transferring part of my THB from my Bangkok Bank account to my cantonal bank (Neuchâtel) in Switzerland in CHF. Are the exchange rate and fees on both sides correct? THANKS !
Hi, I am just opening my Thai bank account and wondered if anyone had advice on cheapest way of transferring large sums into the account. I can use Swift from my uk bank and have Wise and Revolut but open to any suggestions to minimise charges. Many thanks for any reply
Why is western Union cheaper than wise all of a sudden ? Transfer 20000. Bht wise £472 and western Union £457 (no transfer fee) I’m guessing it’s a one off no transfer fee ?
So, would you agree that WISE is the wiser choice to transfer money to the Thai bank account? I compared the final outcome (including exchange rate and fees) and it seems to be the best option.
The best & cheapest way to wire large amounts of cash to Thailand for Americans and to get the best exchange rate using a credit card.
If you are a veteran or a family member of one, you can qualify for NFCU membership. They are one of, if not the largest, credit unions in the world.
Wiring from an NFCU account to a Thai account, any amount of money, is a straight $25 wire fee. Depending on the bank, it will show up within 1-4 days. Always send US dollars as you will get a better exchange rate by the receiving bank in Thailand.
The best way to avoid any worries about Thai taxes, AND get the best exchange rate for dollar to baht, while racking up credit card reward points, is to use the NFCU flag ship VISA rewards card and not have the transaction on the radar. NFCU Visa gives you whatever the international exchange rate is at the time of your purchase, and you can use the credit card in most businesses that accept credit card.
I used to be a big fan of NFCU; however, their services have deteriorated since they opened up membership to branches. Regardless, if you are eligible, it can save you a lot of money. Drop a note if I can answer any questions.
