Question

What currency is best to bring to Phuket if you can’t get US dollars?

Insider's Response

If you can’t bring new US dollars, it’s best to take euros, as they are accepted at all exchange offices. Many travelers also bring Chinese yuan, which currently has a favorable exchange rate. Additionally, more people are starting to use USDT (a cryptocurrency token), and there are options to exchange it for Thai baht in Thailand.
