Is there a limit to amount you can exchange at SuperRich ?

[thairookie]

I plan to change some MYR and bring the MYR out of the country. Perhaps about 200,000 baht, but that alone we are looking at more than 200 pieces of MYR 100 notes. Apparently that is the biggest denomination, and I wonder if Immigration will raise a voice on that.

No you can bring now half million Bhat out of smile land change law last year from only 50 before!

But not sure every citicen you can bring same amount out

How large is considered large ?

I always go to another shop called Grand Super Rich. I'm not sure if they belong to the same company, but the rates are exactly the same.

Is it possible to negotiate for rates at SuperRich ? If the amount is substantial.

[Sandman77]

For this amount I would suggest going to the main SuperRich branch on Rajdamri Road. From what I have read they give a slightly better exchange rate there vs. the numerous satellite locations. YMMV.

As I thought about this - if I was going to make this sized exchange it might be worth it to do some due diligence.

I always exchange my latest issue and pristine $100 USD bills with the arab money changers in lower Suk between soi 3 and 5. I have found they provide very competitive exchange rates and consistently beat the rates offered at the SuperRich kiosk at the Asoke BTS.

Might be worth some investigation. I would just swing by and tell them what you want to do. No harm in asking.

[Baa_Mango]

keep in mind main SR branches will give better rates than BTS/Satellite branches (as noted above.)

[siam2007]

it certainly makes sense to call ahead if you want to Exchange 1.000.000 $ into Baht or vice versa.

I have seen this happenening with my own eyes.

If you exchange huge amounts, you will not do this in their regular outlet. you will be guided to a small hidden office, very discrete.

At the SuperRich main office near Central world / Khlong SaenSaeb I have seen the largest amount of cash I have ever seen in my life. I was waiting to do some transaction too, and another (THAI) customer there changed hundreds of Millions of Baht.

Seriously. It must have been more than a boot of a regular saloon car can carry, all bundles of 1000 Baht bills.

so, to answer your question, YES you can probably change any amount you want.

The reaction of the custoim or immigration when you leave Thailand and enter another country, now that's another story

Was the Thai customer a monk by any chance?

In Bangkok, also try Siam exchange near MBK. They have had some currency rates better than superrich head office rate. For example today 23MAR 8PM USD$100 notes are Siam 3,248 Superrich 3,247

Aha ! The Superrich that I have in mind is different from the Superrich @ Asoke. You know there are 2 Superrich brands - a green one and and red one. The one @ Asoke is the red one. It's the green one that offers better rates, but there is now another one called Grand Superrich which is further inside.

Use superrich international exchange 1965 Head Office (Rajdamri Road), orange sign.

Both siam and superrich1965 post on the internet.

for those amounts your better off going to a real bank where there are security safeguards in place.

handing over a million usd to a exchange place is nuts.
