What it publishes, and what it costs.

Receiving an international transfer is 300 to 500 THB, about £6.68 at 44.9 baht to the pound (Money credited to an SCB foreign currency deposit account (USD, GBP, EUR and others), not a baht savings account). 13 published prices recorded in all. Checked 2 November 2026.
These are the prices Siam Commercial Bank Public Company Limited 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 SCB says a foreigner needs.
- Account opening, foreigner (General Savings Account). Identity verification: ID card (a foreigner using a passport and work permit), or a government official card, or a State Enterprise Employee Card. Minimum opening deposit 500 baht; can also be opened via the SCB EASY app. Source page

What the site says.
- SCB's English savings sheet lists a passport and work permit as the foreigner's identity documents. The SCB EASY app charges 199-399 THB to send money abroad. The SCB fee figure for receiving money into a baht account was not readable, so the inward fee shown applies to foreign currency accounts only. Debit card fees shown are for the SCB LET'S Debit Card.
- How the figures were read: The main deposit fee schedule (deposit-en.pdf), the SWIFT remittance page and the LET'S debit card product page returned a bot challenge and were not read..
Paying in baht from the UK.
300 to 500 THB is £6.68 at 44.9 to the pound, £7.00 at 42 and £6.00 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.
