gguy Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) I plan to transfer 30,000 USD to my thai baht account at Bangkok Bank. Are the currency controls still in effect? I read about one year ago that the Bank of Thailand was trying to stop baht speculators by requiring that all foreign remittances above a certain amount be placed in some type of limited access account. I remember the amount to be around 20,000 USD. Are these controls still in effect? Thanks Edited October 30, 2008 by gguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
