Um eine SWIFT-Zahlung zu senden nach THAILAND wird dringend empfohlen, die folgenden Empfehlungen zu beachten:
Overview
Remitter should obtain all required bank information from the Beneficiary, such as SWIFT BIC, account number, and beneficiary bank address. For additional information, please refer to the Bank of Thailand.
Country Requirements/Restrictions
Payments should be conducted through commercial banks and authorized non-banks with foreign exchange licenses. Transactions outside these licensees require case-by-case approval. Foreign currencies can be transferred into Thailand without limit, but recipients must repatriate and sell to an authorized bank or deposit in a foreign currency account with an authorized bank within 360 days, except certain exemptions. Foreign currency purchases from authorized banks need supporting documents. Companies may engage in derivatives transactions for hedging with proper documentation. Bringing in/out foreign currency bank notes exceeding USD 20,000 must be declared to a customs officer. Daily deposits of foreign currency notes and coins must not exceed USD 10,000.
- Debits to accounts are allowed for payment of external obligations with submission of supporting evidence.
- Thai residents can remit up to USD 100 million annually for loans or investments to a parent or subsidiary company.
- Foreign currency accounts for Thai residents can be opened without limitations and must be with authorized Thai banks with funds from abroad.
