I’ve read that you can buy a fast-track service at Bangkok airport to skip the immigration queues. Since I’m flying business class with Turkish Airlines to Bangkok, I’ve also heard that business class passengers might already be allowed to use the fast-track immigration lane for...

I have a retirement visa and an account with Bangkok Bank. I want to transfer 3M to buy a condo. What is the best way to transfer the money? I was thinking of using Wise. Also, I heard horror stories about Bangkok Bank not releasing money for real estate transactions.
