FuninPlural Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Hello, I am currently in Japan and will be making a two week trip in Thailand soon. Should I Exchange my yen to Baht now, or wait until after I'm in Thailand. I'm thinking the latter, and, if so, where? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinscarr Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 The spread between currency buying and selling rates in Thailand is roughly 4%. In Europe & Hongkong it is about 10%. I don't know but I'll guess it's also 10% or so in Japan. If so wait till you get here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmax Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 never ever change money in your own country , never change it at the banks in airport, wait untill you reach thailand , go to your nearest bank and change it there you will allways get a far better rate.

FuninPlural Posted February 24, 2010 Author Share Posted February 24, 2010 Thanks for the info. I will have to exchange a little at the airport though so that I can have baht for the taxi or public bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
