To do what you propose involves buying stablecoin on an exchange that operates here, then send it to another exchange in your home country, from which point you can withdraw to a local bank. That's the process. I have no idea about the legality of doing so. who cares to where.... crypto is global.. prob mars soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cash is legal, and 2. The cash is declared You may also have to declare the cash at transit countries and almost certainly at your destination country.

how241 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 If you are not in an immediate need for the money, it might be a good idea to transfer/move the money in smaller amounts over a period of time. That should avoid raising any potential red flags or questions from anyone. Crazy world today with everyone thinking all people moving money are somehow bad or doing something wrong. It has been shown that most illegal transfers are done in cash and thru some of the largest banks. Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjnaus Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 I tried this a year or two ago.... however, I ran into trouble purchasing stable coins on local exchanges due to rather low liquidity (apparently not too many Thais trading stables, at least not back then). I was looking to buy DAI or USDC and was only able to buy a few hundred to roughly 1000 per transaction. Turned out to be a major hassle so I gave up. In the end, went the swift transfer route.

I live where even the manager of the bank or the local MD speak any Angrit... As others have said. Have a look at Dee Money. Maybe send some home, and carry some home. You could carry more than 10,000 Euros. As long as you have proof of Swift transfers you could just declare it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to OTC with a local that works for a overseas company but has staff on-shore (saves on transaction fees for salaries/deferred salaries etc).

ThaiLawOnline Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I researched that topic, trade crypto with AI on bots and Thailand is not the place. Isle of Man Gibraltar Dubai If you are talking about large amounts and saving taxes, USA is bad, Canada is getting there. HK is opening and Singapore is pretty good. It needs regulations and USA will drop them like nuclear bombs. Europe is doing it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
