What's the cheapest way to change money in Thailand? How much cash is appropriate?

If Thailand is landing visa, we have to pay 2,000 or 2,200 baht before entering the country. At the same time, Thai customs may check the currency we carry with us (the equivalent currency of RMB 2,000 per person), so we need to collect Thai baht at home before going to Thailand, just in case something happens.

At present, many domestic banks support the exchange of Thai baht, but the exchange rates of ICBC and BOC are generally good. For example, my personal exchange rate at ICBC at the end of April was about 1:4.9. Here, I suggest you choose one of the above two banks to exchange Thai baht (friendly reminder, you must make an appointment on the APP in advance, and you can't go to the scene). At the same time, you can change it at the departure airport, but the exchange rate is really bad, unless it is a temporary emergency.

2. Thai local currency exchange

Thailand can also be replaced at the same time. After entering the country, you can see various color exchange shops at the airport. However, as in China, it is not recommended to change at the airport. The exchange rate is not worthwhile. There are bank ATMs in the streets, shopping malls, public hubs and other places in Bangkok, which can also be exchanged. Domestic UnionPay cards are supported, but a certain handling fee will be charged, which is 100 per card. Therefore, in an emergency, you can exchange it directly at the ATM.

The easiest way in Thailand is to exchange money directly at the money exchange shop, and the exchange rates of different shops are different. Recommend a super name? Ricky's money exchange shop can exchange RMB directly with his passport, and there is no handling fee, and he can also download super on his mobile phone. Rich's application queries exchange rates of different stores.

3. Cash carrying

At present, 7 1 1 in Thailand mainly supports Alipay's WeChat payment, while the local cosmeceuticals in shopping malls and cosmetic shops outside (ask AirPlay or WeChat when paying, the other party will understand the meaning) basically only support cash payment, so cash is needed for daily basic purchases. In addition to carrying the equivalent of 2000 RMB (about 65438+100000 baht) to meet the requirements of Thai customs, RMB should be carried according to actual needs.

To sum up, before I go abroad, I change the necessary 65,438+00,000 plants (20,000 plants in my family), and then go to Thailand with RMB to find a super rich exchange shop to exchange Thai baht, which is the most cost-effective! Sometimes the exchange rate of local exchange shops will be more cost-effective than the domestic exchange rate!
