I Need Us Dollars But Where?

Featured Replies

Does anyone know a bank in Pattaya where I can exchange thai baht for dollars? I've been to 2 banks already and they didn't have any dollars.

Also I only need $20. The exchange shop I went this time only had $100 and up.

Ask and you shall receive --

Siam Commercial Bank has provided USD in the past -- however I never needed small bills.

Try the Gold Bank in soi Rungland, they will change Thai baht into nearly any currency you want. Its a Thai run money changer, looks like a gold shop from outside.

Cheers.

Bangkok bank once exchanged TB to US$ 1s and 5s for me for a trip tp CAmbo. Ones and fives still get you sanook maak there!

Opposite Tony's Disco on walking Street about 50m back or almost opposite Big Tuna Bar, good and very good rate money changer. He is happy to get rid of samller bills in $, bets go middle afternoon, when he gets cash delivered from day's business. Cheers. JL.

second that !! used to always go there for small bills.

^ That's Yenjit. Been there for years and was always the go-to place for forex of any amount of currency. I bought my first house here from the owner who's kids were at Uni in the UK. The kids cashed my post-dated personal cheques in the UK and when they confirmed they had the funds, another installment on my house purchase was marked as paid. It beat me having to bring money into Thailand to buy the house and her having to remit funds from Thailand for her kids living expenses; a 100% win-win.
