Does Thai Vendors accept USD,Euro,Yen,pound and S;pore Dollar?

as a tourist can i bring in these few currencies?|||Use Thai baht in Thailand. Change some of your money over at the airport when you arrive. Thailand uses real banks for most of the currency exchanges. There are lots of banks and mini banks all over Bangkok and major cities.





Some hotels and stores may accept some foreign currency but you will get a lower exchange rate. You won%26#039;t get stuck with Thai baht if that is the reason you do not want to change any money. At the airport before you fly home you can change Thai baht back to your home currency real easy.





Wait until you get to Thailand to get the best exchange rates. Unless you have some strange currency that no one wants just bring your normal currency and change it in Thailand. All the currencies you quote can be changed into Thai baht.





Many credit cards and debit cards can be used in ATM%26#039;s in Thailand, tell your bank that you will be out of the country if you intend to use a card.





Good luck.|||Instead of bringing all those cash in different currencies, the best way to travel is bring your credit card or ATM card. When you reach your destination, exchange your currency at the bank and you will always be served everywhere. Local vendors, most them won%26#039;t accept those local currencies because they don%26#039;t know what currencies they are and how much is the official exchange. Few will accept them, but with a very low rate than the actual exchange rate.|||You can bring any of those currencies, all are easily exchanged at banks or money changers in Thailand. Very few vendors will accept foreign currency, nor would they even know the current exchange rates which can change hourly. The banks run most of the currency exchanges and give a very fair rate, you%26#039;ll need to convert your currencies to Baht.|||Exchange for baht before you come and get a better rate. Street vendors will only take thai baht, they dont know and dont trust if your currency is real or not.





I live in Thailand and this is life here.|||You can bring them but it doesn%26#039;t make a lot of sense. If a vendor or hotel does accept it your going to get a very bad rate of exchange and lose out. If you bring them you need to exchange at a bank to get the best rate.|||No I just got back from Bangkok and vendors only take the baht, which is the Thai dollar. In the tourist areas there are plenty of money changers. They will change the money for you but only take notes no coins.|||I lived in Thailand for 6 years and never heard of vendors accepting anything other than the Thai Baht. Some shop owners done currency exchange but their rates were much steeper than the banks.|||Nice Kingdom, accept any currency, no questions asked|||They take anything dude, so long as it is money.
