Why is an international transfer necessary?
To register property for a foreigner, the Land Department requires an FET (Foreign Exchange Transaction) certificate — confirmation that the money has come from abroad. Without the FET, registration in your name is impossible.
Transfer methods in 2026
SWIFT transfer
A classic bank transfer. Due to sanctions, direct transfers from Russian banks to Thai banks are complicated. However, routes through banks in third countries (UAE, Kazakhstan, Georgia) are operational. Fees: 1-3{4c3c43d1166a1d1dff527390f0aa80c2208b22b51fad691393a45f9289cfc652}.
Exchanging rubles for baht
We assist our clients in exchanging rubles for Thai baht at a favorable rate. This is one of the fastest and most convenient methods, especially considering the restrictions on cash withdrawals ($10,000).
Cryptocurrency
Transfer via stablecoins (USDT) with subsequent conversion to baht through licensed exchanges in Thailand. Fast and not tied to the banking system. Important: keep all transaction confirmations.
Important rules
Purpose of payment: In the bank transfer, be sure to specify «for purchase of condominium unit» or «investment».
Currency: The transfer must be in foreign currency (not in baht) — only then will the bank issue the FET.
Recipient: The money must be credited to your account in a Thai bank (not directly to the seller).
We consult our clients on all money transfer issues and help find the optimal route.
