What is the KRW/THB exchange rate?
The KRW/THB rate tracks how many Thai Baht one South Korean Won buys. South Korea's won reflects the country's export-heavy economy - led by semiconductors, electronics, and automotive manufacturing. Bank of Korea policy and global tech demand are the main drivers.
KRW is issued by the Bank of Korea (BOK) (ranked 11th globally - meaning it's the 11th most bought and sold currency in the world). THB is issued by the Bank of Thailand (BOT) (ranked 22nd). Full KRW profile | Full THB profile

On a typical conversion, banks add 2-4% to this rate. The gap between the mid-market rate and what you actually receive is the real cost of converting - often larger than any flat fee.

Converting South Korean Won to Thai Baht? Read this first
Travelling to Thailand? ATMs are widely available but most Thai banks charge a 220 THB foreign-card fee per withdrawal. Using a card with no foreign transaction fees and choosing "without conversion" when prompted avoids the worst markups. Currency exchange booths in tourist areas like Khao San Road often offer worse rates than bank branches.
Watch out: Airport bureau de change counters routinely mark up KRW/THB by 8-12%. Withdrawing Thai Baht from a local ATM or using a no-fee card is almost always cheaper. Always decline Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) when paying by card.
Did you know?
- Thailand's king appears on all Thai baht banknotes, and it is technically illegal to step on Thai currency because it bears the royal image.
Frequently asked questions
Is it better to use a card or withdraw cash for Thai Baht?
For most travelers, a card with no foreign transaction fee is the simplest and cheapest option - provided you always choose to pay in Thai Baht (the local currency) rather than South Korean Won. Choosing your home currency triggers Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC), which typically adds 3-5% on top. If you need cash, withdraw from ATMs in-country rather than exchanging at airports.

How this rate is calculated
We prefer a direct rate from our primary data source when one is available. If a direct quote is unavailable, we compute a cross-rate through a major intermediary currency (usually USD or EUR). When a rate is derived rather than directly quoted, we label it on the page. Full methodology.
