You may happen to see a 10 baht note, but these are no longer printed. Baht are further broken down into satang with 100 satang per 1 baht. Currently there are only 25 and 50 satang coins and satang are rarely used in transactions. It’s recommended that any currency you carry be clean, crisp, undamaged notes. Cash is the preferred method of payment in Thailand.


ATMs are plentiful in Thailand.


All major credit cards are widely accepted in large businesses, hotels and restaurants. However, smaller stores and cafes do not accept credit cards.
Electric Outlets
In Thailand there are four associated plug types, types A, B, C and O. Type A plugs have two flat parallel pins, type B plugs have two flat parallel pins and a grounding pin, type C plugs have two round pins and type O plugs have two round pins and a round earth pin. Thailand operates on a 220V supply voltage and 50Hz.


 


A universal all-in-one travel adapter (can be purchased from retailers like Amazon) will allow you to plug in and charge most electronic devices. Most electronic devices have built-in converters. However, if you plan to use North American appliances like hair dryers, flat irons or curling irons you will need a converter.
