timber Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Has been suggested that I get some American Money to take to Vietnam. Where is the best place to get in Bangkok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Let's try this in the Bangkok forum. One of the branches of SuperRich will give you competitive rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beechguy Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) As per above, you can try SuperRich, I use Vasu near Soi 7, Sukhumvit, by the Nana BTS Station in Bangkok. Also, on the other side of Sukhumvit, going eastward, is a Bangkok Bank with an exchange window out front.

SteveFong Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I can see if you already have USD then those would bring a better exchange rate than Baht but why would you change Baht to Dollars and then go? you are paying the spread twice that way? can't see the point, nor where you benefit from that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diplomatico Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 I'd get Vietnamese dong before getting dollars....since the trip is to Vietnam and not Vermillion, SD. You can purchase VND at VASU as well. You'll need 950,000 VND for the visa on arrival if you don't already have a visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaoboi Bebobp Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 This morning at Vietin Bank, HCMC, if you buy dong, you get: VND/THB 602 dong/1 baht VND/USD 21,345/ $1 Source: http://www.vietinbank.vn/web/home/en/doc/saving/exrate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
