These are the prices Government Savings Bank (ธนาคารออมสิน) shows on its own website, recorded as published and converted to pounds at the mid-market rate on the day this page was built. Where the site shows a struck-through old price next to the current one, the current one is recorded and the old one noted. Fees are the bank's published schedule, not what a UK card issuer adds; the ATM fee for foreign cards is set by the Thai bank that owns the machine. Rows marked Bank of Thailand come from the regulator's compilation of the bank's submission and carry the date The Baht read them, not a bank-stated date.

What the site says.
- GSB publishes its deposit, card and transfer fee schedules as dated PDFs; deposit, card and transfer schedules are effective 1 November 2026, foreign-remittance, MyMo and PromptPay schedules 16 January 2026. Amounts are in baht. The bank's savings-account pages list only a Thai ID card as the opening document and state no route for foreign residents to open an account; confirm with a branch. Several products (digital savings, Basic savings) are limited to Thai nationals. A foreign-issued card pays 250 THB per withdrawal at GSB ATMs. Inbound international transfers cost 0.25% (200 to 500 THB) and must be sent in USD, EUR, GBP, JPY or CNY, not converted to baht by the sender's bank.
- How the figures were read: Fee schedules are text-layer PDFs on gsb.or.th (Thai language only; no English fee schedule published); SWIFT transfer figures also stated on the bank's own HTML pages..
Paying in baht from the UK.
200 to 500 THB is £4.45 at 44.9 to the pound, £5.00 at 42 and £4.00 at 48. A UK card paying in baht carries its issuer's foreign-exchange load; a transfer at the mid-market rate to a Thai account usually costs less for a large amount.

How The Baht records these prices
Every fee and requirement comes from the bank's own website or published fee schedule, recorded with its page URL and the date it was checked. Where a bank's site refuses automated reads, its fees are taken from the Bank of Thailand's public fee comparison, which compiles what each bank submits to the regulator, and each such row says so. Forums, comparison sites and transfer companies are never used. Each price is mapped to a fixed item list so banks can be compared; the bank's own wording is always shown. Pound figures use the mid-market GBP/THB rate on the day the page was built. Corrections: editorial@thebaht.com.
