Paying in baht from the UK.
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 price comes from the school's own website, recorded with its page URL and the date it was checked; review blogs, visa agents and course directories are never used. Each price is mapped to a fixed item list so Thai language schools can be compared; the Thai language school'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.
