December 1, 201114 yr I want to do a transfer from europe and I want that a bank keeps the money in euros so I can withdraw euros without the need to change the euros to thb and back to euros
December 1, 201114 yr I know kasikorn bank has Euro accounts and a few other currencies for that matter,but I guess most other banks may have the same.
December 1, 201114 yr No problem, SCB, BKK and others all offer this facility. 1% fee on withdrawal if you take out physical EUR, and for significant amounts you will have to give a few days' notice.
December 2, 201114 yr Author I have siam bank These banks are so stupid, I registered acccount in krabi and I cant go into siam bank here in BkK and withdraw all my money. I have to use atm and limit 20000 is killing me. Sucks, I have never seen this, in my country you can withdraw in the bank in each bank, not only where you opened the account stupid system now I have to I guess open a new account again in bkk and close the one in krabi

Surprised be too when I encountered those fees but I guess that it's better than not being able to use other regions' branches as with Siam Bank.

The fee is only 30 baht and before you get off your bike - Banks in Aust charge if you go to the counter instead of using the ATM outside - it is called "service assistance fee"!

I couldn't withdraw my Euros from any other branch except the one I opened the account at. This is going back 1 year, it may have changed since then or it may just have been an incompetent employee who didn't know any better.

Didn't say that it was a huge fee, and yes I know that banks in Western countries are far more brazen in the fees that they hit consumers with. Maybe the banks in Thailand really do incur some extra expenses on inter-regional transactions. I'm sure that they would not just be making up fees for no reason.

My experience with KBank is only with a standard Thai baht savings account.
December 2, 201114 yr The yellow bank (Ayuthaya) has Foreign currency accounts, I was there yesterday, and issue a FC Credit card.
