Okay I have the next dumb question. My buddy is trying to transfer money from Bank of America to Bank of Thailand. He's doing a wire transfer and he's not using wise so let wise go. When we went to do the transfer it asked did we want to use Thai baht, US dollars or euros. We did an experimental run of a thousand US dollars. We chose Thai baht and it gave us an exchange rate of 31.61. not a great exchange rate. Now the question is should we have picked US dollars and then let Bank of Bangkok convert it. Please let us know what you guys think would be the best choice in this quest to bring money to Thailand.

Hey all 👋.

Quick question.

To apply for the DTV, do the funds in my bank account need to be converted to Thai baht first, or can I keep in the equivalent Canadian dollors

Heading to Laos tmrw for my DTV just wondering as I’m 30 km out of Bangkok if the local banks carry USD

Pound against the Baht is rising!

For folks who successfully got the DTV from applying in Vietnam. Was it crucial your 500k THB be in Thai Baht or can I have it in an equivalent currency? I have the equivalent right now in Canadian dollars and want to avoid the exchange rate fees if possible.

Thank you

Advice needed from Revolut bank account holders please.

I am trying to send payments via my Revolut Thai Baht account to a Krungthai bank account, but it won't accept the account number in the usual Thai format (###-#-#####-#) .

Any clues how to circumvent this ?

Advice rather than snide comments much appreciated in advance

TRANSFER OF THB FROM BANGKOK BANK to CHF of my Swiss Cantonal Bank ?

Hello Swiss expatriates!

I am thinking of transferring part of my THB from my Bangkok Bank account to my cantonal bank (Neuchâtel) in Switzerland in CHF. Are the exchange rate and fees on both sides correct? THANKS !

Anyone showed balance in euro? Is 13 900€ enough? Visa application in Warsaw, Poland.

Hi what is the exchange rate for uk pound at the moment bank and booths please 👍

This is not another bank account question, but it is in a similar direction, I hope the admins allow it.

**How can a foreigner in Thailand, let's say on a DTV, convert crypto like Bitcoin to Thai baht cash?

**

To clarify - the crypto assets are not in a Thai exchange. The foreigner does not have a Thai ID card and doesn't have NDID either. Let's make it even harder for him, he doesn't even have a Thai bank account.

What are the options? Are there any with exchange rates close to reasonable?

Will opening a Thai bank account help in this situation?
