 |
|
Hi,
I'm looking to get some Thai baht for a friend before Sunday but can't get to a bank today as I'm working.
Is there any currency exchange place in or near Itaewon that will have Thai baht? I mean, one that won't completely rip me off.
Thanks. |

Buy 10,000 THB at ICN on your way out.
Bring US dollars for the rest.
Exchange dollars to THB in Thailand. (selling dollars/buying baht = 30.16 thb/$1 at the bank today (cash rate)).
Do NOT take won out of Korea.
Exchange rates for won in Thailand: selling won/buying baht = 22.3 thb/chunwon.
