i will soon come to thailand and i wil bring cash with me in euro.

What is the max ammount i can deposit so they will not flag my account. I always brought cash with me in the past and they never ask me questions.

But now i hear how they close bank accounts left and right for no reason....so what to do?

i will deposit like 8000 eur....i hope that is not too much lol

I just deposited 10,000 in my Thai bank account.

Baht, that is, in 20s.

Took forever to count it.

But that's how it goes when you're rich*

*At the store where everything costs 19b 😀

It’s not too much, though it wouldn’t hurt to check the exchange rates between your bank, Wise and SuperRich first.

Typically yes, better than the banks. Make sure your cash is clean with no markings or those bill will be rejected.

Your current cash amounts are too small for banks to red flag as a one off, but if there is a pattern of moving cash like this then the flags go up as it suggests you are hiding something.

Try depositing more than £999.99 in a British Bank without getting the 3rd degree

All covered under Proceeds of Crime act of 2002 in UK

Even up Post Office (my nearest bank branch not joking is 172 miles away) they were asking questions about £820 last week

Edited in.....you cant even pay cash into your own wife's account any more even say £10 (I assure you thats true lol)

Be warned.

Thailand is focused on banking, large sums, frequent large sum transactions, people with multiple bank accounts outside the Normal.

Additionally the departing country or arriving country May Seize the money Period. You will need to Prove beyond a reasonable doubt it is obtained "Legally" Any unusual explanations, failure to provide official documents, what the official determines as Unusual behavior and your Money may be detained further.

Why, With the risk it is lost, stolen on the plane or detained and taking many hours or days to recover would you Need to bring Cash. (That cost of wire, Wise, transfer fees alone is insurance well spent)

Downplay it all you want Dunning-Kruger effect followers. Thailand is Serious and Focused on Banking, read stories almost daily.

At the end being wise, informed about the destination countries status on banking, and weighing the risks hopefully you will make the right decision.

Cash is not “king,” it is a liability. I pay for everything with credit cards or scan pay.

Cash is for paranoid geriatrics.
