Thanks mate , I'm getting mixed up with How much you can carry out and reporting what you are taking out , so as long as you tell them you can take what you like really

Sir,
i apologise for my bad English (third language). please tell me which part of my posting you don't understand and i will try harder.

NaaM, I am taking 500,000 Baht so under the 20K usd

 

 

 

 

Thanks , I think if you are leaving a country with Foreign currency you don't have to report it , US is probably different, anti terrorism and such , I'll be coming from Malaysia so I'll check it out, cheers again

 

I would think again.......

A woman was recently arrested carrying 30 million baht out!

US was not in the original question.

I was told the limit to take out of Thailand was 50,000 baht, bringing it in I believe is the same.

 

OP... can you bring in US$, £STLG or Euro, unlimited if declared.

 

 

The limit to take Thai baht OUT of Thailand is actually 500,000 (as was stated in that same article about the Laos lady being arrested trying to 'smuggle' out 30,000,000Baht), I also believe it is an unlimited amount to bring Thai Baht into Thailand

 

 

Further checking we are both right. And I am wrong about how much one can bring in... although one might ask how you took it out in the first place!

One to watch out for....

Local Currency.

There is no restriction on the amount of Thai baht bank notes that may be brought into the country. A person traveling to Thailand's bordering countries including Vietnam is allowed to take out up to THB 500,000 and to other countries up to THB 50,000, respectively, without authorization.

Ok these are the rates I checked out today for 3 options for 500,000 baht

 

Bkk bank Malaysia to BKK bank Thailand -Ringgit 539191 

Money changer 50961 Ringgit 

HSBC Malaysia To Bangkok bank Thailand 52000 Ringgit

Did it this Morning with HSBC cost me 51885. Which saved me 2000RM or 20,000 Baht on the BKK Bank Malaysia to BKK Bank Thailand price

 

Would have save a further 1000RM , 10000 baht had i done it with the money changer but then I'd have to be travelling with half a million baht in my bag
