Learn how to get the best Yen exchange rate before exchanging your money
The Yen is the official Yen currency. JPY/THB represents the value of Yen money in Baht money and it is called the 'exchange rate' or 'forex rate'. This exchange rate from Yen to Baht is today at 0.241.
As an example, suppose you are from Bangkok Thailand and you travel to Tokyo Japan. There, you need to get 1000 Yens ( ¥) at a Tokyo bank to pay your hotel. In this case you would pay 0.241 * 1000 = 241.025 Bahts (฿). But, in practice, you will pay more (or perhaps much more) to get the same amount of your foreign currency due to the margin for the money conversion services costs like: commissions, credit card surcharges, ATM fees and other expenses. If, for example, you are using a credit card, this margin will typically be around 2 to 3 percent. We recommend that you choose the best place to make your money exchange because there can be a large difference between forex rates you will get.
In the example above for a 1000 Yens amount, the result of the money conversion is 245.846 THB for a 2% margin or 248.256 THB for a 3% margin.
Some Internet based foreign currency exchange agencies add 10 percent or even more. So, if you make the same calculations above, there will be a difference of about 24.103 THB depending on which forex bank or agency you choose to exchange your money. So, that's why we advise you to seek the best place to get the best fx rates for your upcoming money transfer/exchange. The only way to know what is the best exchange rate is to know what the current rate is. You can easily accomplish this by using periodically our currency converter above to get an idea of what forex rate to expect.
