Do I need to bring Thai baht to landing visa, Thailand?

Landing visa has really brought convenience to many people in China, and it is also a means to further attract tourists from China. So, do I need to carry Thai baht to handle landing visa in Thailand?

According to the regulations of the Immigration Bureau of Thailand, passengers handling landing visa must carry 20,000 baht (individual) and 40,000 baht (family) or equivalent foreign currency with them. When you go to Thailand to enter landing visa, try to bring the cash stipulated by the Immigration Bureau of Thailand.

In order to avoid being inspected, repatriated or severely punished, it is not worth the loss. This year, when a tour group entered landing visa, more than half of the tourists were fined for not bringing the required cash.

If you don't have time to exchange Thai baht at the Bank of China before departure, you can also bring RMB into the country, because the same amount of foreign currency is also acceptable. At the same time, there are many currency exchange windows in the airport to exchange Thai baht.

But the exchange rate at the airport is much lower than that outside, and passport registration is needed. If it's not urgent, you can change it in the city. At the same time, China UnionPay's bank cards can also be withdrawn from ATMs in Thailand.

ATM supports Chinese operation interface, so you don't have to worry about language problems and you can't get money. It should be noted that ATM withdrawals in Thailand are charged, especially domestic cross-border fees and Thai banks. However, the ATM exchange rate at the airport is relatively low, and the handling fee will be higher.

It is suggested that if you are not in a hurry, you can change Thai baht at home before going. Don't take chances, and avoid being randomly selected to affect your travel mood. At the same time, it is suggested to apply for cross-border bank cards free of charge in China, which can avoid domestic fees.

But Thailand's handling fee is also needed. The handling fee for studying in Thailand has increased several times, and the exchange rate has been falling. You can try to use Alipay WeChat, because the withdrawal fee of Thai baht cash is really painful!
