Best Residency for Wise outside of the EU

[yngmind]

What residency would you use for the Wise personal account outside the EU to have a multi-currency account?

I think Thailand, and Indonesia should work well, but you will really have to verify that you live there, they are checking it now.

UAE wise doesn't provide multi currency acccounts.

Switzerland is probably the best for now

You may want to change the address of your other bank account to the one you want to use on Wise to have an address proof.

Thanks for the links. Georgia and Thailand seem like easy options. I have bank accounts in both countries, and I have a driving license in Thailand, and I can get one in Georgia for sure.
Why they don't have the UAE in the list?


Damn they even have China, WTF

Which bank do you use in Georgia and Thailand? Do you have a residency in Thailand for the driving licence?

They do not offer the world account, apparently.

BOG and Bangkok bank.

I don't have residency in Thailand, but I have a Thai driving license.

Ya my Wise account was completely crippled when I had a residency in the UAE. Royalty owns banks and communication and are important pressure points for controlling a people.

I had EU wise, and once I opened a Wise app with the UAE IP, they started a KYC process, requesting EU residency, address etc.

But you did not have an address proof?
