Whenever I’m on the lookout for new places to eat I always try and find out where the locals go. So I figured why not find out where Thais go to get the best currency exchange rates. Thais love to travel especially to other parts of Asia, Europe and of course the good ol’ USA.

So where do Thais go to get the exchange rates that are way better than what Thai banks have to offer?

They head to Super Rich money exchange. What a funky name right?

The best place to exchange for Thai Baht…

Super Rich is not a bank but they are still one of the most recognized businesses in Thailand for getting the best rates.

Just recently $1US dollar was around 32THB which is really good. When I arrived into Thailand a few months ago it was around 29THB. Before that it was around 27THB. I know a few THB here and there doesn’t seem like a whole lot but the difference is certainly noticeable if you’re changing a lot of big bills.

Of course they are able to exchange major currencies from all the world from Yen to Euros.

There’s a Super Rich close to me at Central Ladprao Mall but they do have branches in Silom and Chidlom which are all convenient locations for tourists.

Just to remember to bring along your passport which is a new requirement for foreigners.
