First time visa runner. Going into another country (Malaysia) how to exchange money? Do I bring many crispy 1,000 THB notes and exchange at one of the exchange counters or take money out of an ATM? I have Bangkok bank.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the best methods for exchanging Thai Baht (THB) for Malaysian Ringgit (MYR) during a visa run to Malaysia. Key suggestions emerge, such as using ATMs in Malaysia which allow free withdrawals, or exchanging currency at money changers in Thailand, particularly at places like Superrich which offer low fees. There were also considerations about carrying crisp THB notes and advice about converting only the necessary amounts for expenses while ensuring to avoid conversion fees.
