Baht to US$
Baht to US$
Coming from Thailand to PP
I have Thai Baht , should I change it to US$ in Thailand or would changing baht to Riel be better in PP
Best exchanges are near the Market areas?
TIA

Re: Baht to US$
Best rates you get with the money changers East of the Central Market, but last time (November?) the rate was about 0,5 THB per USD less than I got in Thailand. So if you have a lot of THB it pays to exchange it in Thailand.
Re: Baht to US$
The best money changers in Thailand, e.g. SuperRich in Bangkok, have a razor thin spread (0.13 THB per USD right now) for exchanging USD, I'm pretty sure that cannot be beaten elsewhere.
So if it's convenient for you to go to one of those, it's probably worth it.

can i buy $$$ with my baht at Super rich at BKK Airport, they have a branch in the basement level
Re: Baht to US$
There are Super Rich exchanges on some BTS station platforms. Wish I could remember which ones, but I travel from Phra Khanong 4 stations to Asok all the time. Actually, after checking, at Phrom Phong station, there's one in Emporium Mall.
Anyway, in my experience, the big banks at the airport take bigger cuts on the rates. They have to pay high rents. So I would guess the Super Rich rates at the airport would be higher.

St 298 alongside Olympic Market has a row of money shops that give similar to Central Market if that's handier
Re: Baht to US$
Funnily enough, the airport exchange rate for exchanging THB to USD isn't THAT bad, even at the bank booths. So in a pinch or for last-minute exchanges before flying out, I actually use them sometimes.ExPenhMan wrote: ↑Mon Jan 09, 2023 10:09 amThere are Super Rich exchanges on some BTS station platforms.

Their exchange rates from foreign currencies to Thai baht, on the other hand, are daylight robbery. So they're clearly focusing on ripping off new arrivals.
