How to open a THB (Thai Baht) account?

What are the fees associated with opening a THB (Thai Baht) account?

Access to our services and the provision of currency accounts are completely free. Our remuneration is solely based on the exchange rate applied to your purchases/sales of Thai Baht. This exchange rate is always communicated transparently before your transactions are validated.

Is the THB (Thai Baht) account a personalized bank account?

The Thai Baht (THB) account for which we provide you with the details is not a bank account per se because the account-holding institution is not a bank but a partner payment institution. These accounts are registered in your name, and the IBAN linked to the account is unique. You thus have a guarantee of segregation of your funds in the books of our partners. The security guarantees for your funds are similar to those offered by traditional banks. The account can be located in different countries according to your operational needs. Please refer to the page on opening a Thai Baht (THB) account for more information.

In which countries can the THB (Thai Baht) account be located?

It may be useful for your THB (Thai Baht) account to be located in France or, conversely, in another country, depending on your operational needs and the location of your clients. This is why we allow great flexibility in the location of currency accounts. The THB (Thai Baht) account can be located in the following countries of your choice:

  • France
  • United Kingdom
  • Belgium
  • Netherlands

Is it possible to hold THB (Thai Baht) in the THB account?

You can use this Thai Baht account to receive or store THB for as long as you wish, as long as your account is active. You are automatically notified by email each time a Thai Baht transfer is received in your THB account. You can then freely reuse these THB to make payments in THB to your suppliers or convert your Thai Baht at very competitive exchange rates. There is no obligation to move funds on the accounts. 

Is the THB (Thai Baht) account compatible for receiving THB from marketplaces like Amazon or collection systems like Paypal?

Foreign currency payment collection systems like Adyen, Stripe, Paypal, Hipay, or internal systems of marketplaces like Amazon Pay are widely used by companies conducting international transactions. These systems are efficient, but if you do not have an account in the collected foreign currency, your income in that currency is automatically converted into euros at often very unfavorable exchange rates, and even when you have a bank account in the collected currency, this account often needs to be located in the country where the sale takes place, which can be complicated with a traditional bank. Some of our partners offer currency accounts compatible with most marketplaces and collection systems.

Besides THB (Thai Baht), what other currencies are available for account opening?

You can find all eligible currencies for opening a currency account by visiting this page.

Can checks, cash be deposited, or can the funds in my THB (Thai Baht) account be used with a bank card?

It is not possible to deposit checks or cash into your THB (Thai Baht) account. Only bank transfers are accepted for transactions on the account. No bank card can be linked to the account at this time.

Are account statements listing all transactions in THB (Thai Baht) available?

Account statements listing all operations in Thai Baht are downloadable at any time from the online interface. These statements include maximum information about beneficiaries, the origin of funds, related exchange operations, to facilitate the work of your accounting department.

Can the entries of the THB (Thai Baht) account be integrated into an ERP or TMS like SAP, SAGE, AGICAP, or Kyriba?
