soistalker Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 What is the limit on bringing cash into Thailand? I would be arriving by airplane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 It is 20,000 US dollars. More requires you to declare it to Thai customs. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe china Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 And declaration is easy. If you bring more and don't declare you can have the cash taken off you and get booted. Sent from my SM-N9500 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure? And I do not need to declare that amount? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If less than you not need to declare. But why you want avoid the declaration as it have only advantages. So It would be easier to bring it outside again if needed. I don't see any disadvantage in the declaration except that you spend about 5 minutes at the customs at Survanabumi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe china Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 However the caveat here is that there are not many places you can leave with $20k without declaring.Europe is €10kUSA is $10kChina is $5kVietnam is $5k or 15 million DongHK is HK$120kSent from my SM-N9500 using Tapatalk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 They will let you bring in as much as you want as long as you declare it. The problem is getting it out at your end wherever that is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nglodnig Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 http://1000000-euro.de/index.php#euro-gewicht A million Euros should weigh just over two kilos, well within hand-baggage limitations. http://1000000-euro.de/how-much-does-a-million-dollars-weigh/index.php#weigh-dollar US dollars are not so efficient - a million bucks would be ten kilos. I would advise against checking in suitcases with large amounts of cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would advise against checking in suitcases with large amounts of cash.I don't think anyone would be suspicious of anyone carrying a million euros in €500 notes....But you would have to be quick as the ecb is trying to get rid of them due to the fact that they are mostly used in criminal situations.The 1000 Swiss Franc note does a better job and there is no requirement to declare any amount on exit from Geneva or Zurich Airport.

thrilled Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 If your leaving the US then the most you can take out of the us is $10,000 Anymore than that they can confiscate it.Thailand might allow more but you need to be careful of what country your leaving and which country your going to.

"The United States does not limit the amount of cash you can take into or out of the country. But anything over $10,000 has to be reported." From Google.

thaibeachlovers Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I checked this recently for my flight, but forgotten already. The information is on several web sites if you google, but as noted on another post, the amount allowed out of a different country may be less. However, most would allow any amount as long as declared if over the limit. I was always over the home country limit when travelling to Thailand and under the limit for LOS on arrival. If you can get a local bank account, easiest to transfer bank to bank, though obviously there is a fee for doing so. Safer than carrying loadsacash though.

I always obtained the form from a customs office prior to travelling to save time at the airport. Local customs will inform anyone asking as to local procedure. They are just a phone call away.
