In the Thai embassy in Vientiane, is it possible to pay with a credit card or transfer from a Thai bank? Or does anyone know where I can get 10,000 Thai baht in Vientiane?

Answer summary

At the Thai embassy in Vientiane, payments are likely cash only, specifically in Thai Baht. There are various options for acquiring 10,000 Thai Baht: visiting local banks, using money changers near the embassy, or even withdrawing from ATMs if you cross into Thailand. Many commenters recommend checking with nearby banks and money transfer services like Money Gram.

Do you have cash on you ? There is somewhere across the road from the embassy you can change it at. But if you have no cash yo exchange you are really going to struggle

I don't recommend it, but people on the street asked me if I want to exchange kip to THB. The rate was 690kip for 1 thb. Which is kinda ok I think.

I asked 3 different banks no one sells baht and no one suggested other options

Money changers will sort you out with THB or a bank. Someone posted recently where to go for THB, check the threads.

OositiveGolphin1656 Someone posted they got it from a bank after showing them the DTV payment request. You can definitely get it from moneychangers. There is one opposite where you have to pay, someone mentioned last week. Did you find the recent post on Laos and THB?
