Next week I am travelling to Sihoukville via Koh Kong. Is there anywhere in Pattaya where I can get US$ in advance. I have tried a few banks but they will only convert $ to Baht not the other way around

Theres a little money changer down soi BJ,off walking street opposite abbies bar,were I changed some last time I went to Cambodia.

I'm not sure if its still open this was about 9 months ago.

Siam Commercial Bank ....just before walking street.....i changed some baht to dollars last November there.

Yenjit Money Changer - Walking Street - Right side beyond Hooties opposite Family Mart.

-redwood

You can change $us in the airport

You can change Thai Bath for $us in the airport

most money changers have buy/sell rates.

they won't do it?

Best place to buy any foreign currency (or to change to Baht) is Bank Gold, on the left hand side 50 meters inside soi Rungland (the soi opposite the international telephone exchange on South Pattaya Road)
