With cheaper flights, easy online planning, and a growing wanderlust, more Indians than ever are setting their sights on international travel and Thailand tops the list.

To travel abroad, one of the most important things is to check the currency and how much Indian rupees are worth in that currency. The official currency of Thailand is the Thai Baht (THB), which holds slightly more value than the Indian Rupee (INR). The exchange rate is not fixed and changes daily depending on global market conditions, the US dollar’s performance, and overall international economic trends. (News18 Tamil)

As of July 25, 2025, 1 Indian Rupee is equal to approximately 0.43 Thai Baht. This means that Rs 100 will fetch around 43 Baht. Looking at this rate, it’s evident that the Indian Rupee is relatively weaker than the Thai Baht. This is something to keep in mind while planning your travel budget, as it helps estimate overall expenses more accurately. (News18 Tamil)

Currency exchange rates may vary depending on where you get your money converted. For instance, airports generally offer less favourable rates and charge additional service fees. For better value, it’s advisable to exchange money at local centres in cities. You can always check the latest rates online using platforms like XE.com, Investing.com, or Google Currency Converter.

Always carry some cash, especially small notes of 20, 50, and 100 Baht, which are useful for street food, tuk-tuks, and local transport. While debit and credit cards are accepted at malls and high-end places, many local vendors prefer cash. Also, note that Indian apps like Paytm and PhonePe don’t work in Thailand, so having sufficient Thai Baht on hand is essential. (News18 Tamil)

Thailand’s affordable cost of living is one of the biggest draws for Indian travellers. From budget hotels and delicious food to convenient transport, everything fits comfortably within a traveller’s budget. That’s why lakhs of Indians visit Thailand each year. If you’re planning a trip soon, make sure to check the latest currency rates and plan your finances well in advance for a smooth, cost-effective, and enjoyable holiday. (News18 Tamil)
