FAQs

Is 5000 baht enough for 3 days? ›

Yes, 5000 baht can be enough for 3 days in Bangkok if you plan to eat street food and take taxis, and avoid any luxury activities. However, the amount you will need may depend on your specific itinerary, how much you plan to eat, and the distance of your taxi rides.

50,000 baht should be heaps for 1 person for 10 days. You should be able to do whatever you have your heart set on. I would seriously recommend you take more than that if you can.

Yes, depends on your lifestyle. 2-3 taxi rides and 2-3 meals per day could totally cost you up towards 1000 baht. That would be 10 days of strictly taxi and food. 10000 baht is my weekly food and misc budget for my girlfriend and myself.

You should be comfortable with 3k. Maybe as much of a consideration is how are you bringing your money. Assuming it is in some sort of bank account and you will be drawing it out as you need it on a card; or bringing exchangeable cash and changing as you go, then I suspect you will go home with a fair bit.

A one week trip to Thailand usually costs around $569 (฿20,866) for one person and $1,137 (฿41,731) for two people. This includes accommodation, food, local transportation, and sightseeing. A two week trip to Thailand on average costs around $1,137 (฿41,731) for one person and $2,275 (฿83,463) for two people.

In fact, $100 in Thailand should buy you any of the following: 10-15 meals from any number of Bangkok street food stalls. 300 Thai beers. 2-5 nights in a three-star phu*ket beach resort.

For those on a tight budget, it is possible to live on as little as $500 USD per month. This will require some lifestyle changes, such as living in a smaller house or apartment, cooking at home rather than eating out, and forgoing some luxuries such as a gym membership or studying Thai.

You may be staying in a cheap flop at 400 baht a night and have a small amount of money to spend or you may be in a luxurious hotel spending 6000 baht a night. For you perhaps from 500 baht a day to 5000 baht a day will be enough.

What are the limits? According to Thailand's official rules, you can bring up to $20,000 USD or the currency equivalent into the country before you have to declare it to customs. If you're bringing Thai baht (THB) into the country rather than a foreign currency, the most you can carry with you is 500,000 THB.

If you are living on the minimum wage, TB 1,000 is a lot of money, because it represents the salary of three days. Many Thais make around TB 15,000 per month. This is around TB 500 per day. If your monthly salary is TB 15,000, TB 1,000 is a lot of money, because is represents the salary of two days.

How much Thai baht do I need per day? ›

If you are going to eat street food and either walk or catch local buses everywhere then 500 a day should be enough. If you're going to eat at fancy restaurants and hit the Go Go bars each night and party with new friends back in your room then 10,000 a day might not be enough.

Yes, it is, but you'll have to stay in hotels that are under 1,000 baht per night, you'll have to eat street food, and travel by bus. You won't have too much money to party strongly/properly.

The best and only currency to use in Thailand is the Baht. Any other currencies will not be accepted in daily life, so it's best not to try to use them. That being said, when in a pinch, service providers like taxi drivers might take US dollars as a tip (not as a payment though).

How much it costs to live in Thailand per month will differ based on individual needs, wants, and budgets. As the food and utility costs are affordable in Thailand, you can expect to shell out anywhere between $650 to $3,000 per month — which is around 2.6 times less than what you'd spend living each month in the U.S.

Thailand has very low levels of petty theft and pickpocketing, however, so carrying cash is typically quite safe–just keep an eye on your belongings on crowded trains or at major tourist sites. Arriving with $500 to $1,000 in cash will easily cover your expenses for a week or more.

A budget of 2,500 to 5,000 baht per day is enough to stay in a three or four star hotel, eat at most of Bangkok's mid range and high-end restaurants and easily get around the city by taxi instead of depending on the BTS, khlong boats and bus system.

These costs include food, travel, sightseeing, flights, and lodging. Considering the information above, for a 3-day trip to Thailand, you can expect to spend an average of: ✅ Solo traveler: Approximately $282 to $687. ✅ Couple: Approximately $486 to $1,197.

It's enough to get by on quite comfortably, but you won't be living in the lap of luxury. A decent hotel in Bangkok will cost up to about 1000 baht/day, depending on your personal definition of 'decent'. You can of course spend more than that if you really want to.
