Have seen this somewhere before but cant find so :

Is there any limit to how much in UK Pounds that can be taken out of TL for expenses for a visit?

Hi,

I have taken this from the Thai Embassy Hull website. If its in Pounds or another foreign currency then the equivalent of $20,000 (about 13,000 GBP) if its in Baht then just 50,000 (about 1,100 GBP at 45 to the pound)

In to and out of Thailand:

Any person wishing to bring in to or take out of Thailand any amount of foreign currency

exceeding 20,000 (twenty thousand) US Dollars in cash (or equivalent amount in other

currencies) must declare such amount of foreign currency to Thai Customs on entering and exiting the Kingdom. Failure to declare or to make a false declaration is a criminal offence.

Any person wishing to take Baht 50,000 or more in cash in to or out of Thailand must declare it to Thai Customs on entering/exiting the Kingdom. Persons who are travelling direct to Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar and Vietnam are allowed to take out of the Kingdom Thai currency not exceeding 500,000 Baht.
