Your problem is not rate, it's availability of that sort of volume. I can pretty much guarantee the banks wont have that to hand but they will be able to collect it for you over time, ditto the money changers.

 

Downstream of course there's also a Customs issues but I expect you know that.

Customs won't be an issue. I'm just exchanging for investment purposes. My plan is to keep hold of it until i get 7% profit on my investment. If i have to keep hold of it for a while that's no problem. Thanks.

The HQ of green Superrich in Bangkok Orange will probably also be OK

Where are you located? 

 

If you are in Pattaya, Bank Gold

Go to either of the Super Rich branches in Pratunam. That amount will be zero problem and they won't even blink.

I've used Superrich in Pratunam. They won't have any issue with this amount - judging by the amounts being exchanged last time I was there. Good time to convert THB to USD by the way!

Best exchange used by many businesses is Superich headquarters opposite Central world after Big C. ( side soi. )

I needed a to change bath to a big roll of USD once and did not call ahead to SuperRich on LoiKhroh rd in CM
 

They had it on hand. Like 15 or 20k USD, can’t remember. Nobody batted an eye.

7% is that tax free and what capital gains would be looking at, as a percentage return is good, but you also want capital appreciation, 7% profit in today's terms is not 7% when you take inflation, e.g. cost of items that have increased over time vs the $, baht etc.

 

Americas latest inflation rate is 2.5%, if you believe those figures, would mean you would be receiving 4.5% before tax, if any.

 

Thailand's latest inflation rate is between 1% - 3%, if you believe those figures, would mean you would be receiving between 4% - 6% before tax if any.

 

Personally, I don't believe the above inflation figures for my own reasons.

 

The above said you need to look at bigger returns, like 10% +

 

I have been averaging 12% - 20% tax free, but am not going to tell you where you can get that, as I am not a financial investor, and sure the heck beats getting what your suggesting.

 

Good luck

so you buy the usd here and wait till the baht goes down?
