[reviving an old thread]:

I've found exchanging money at bank kiosks (which are everywhere) give better rates than exchanging in Canada. Of course, always carry a little bit of baht in case you're in the airport and you want to buy a bottle of water or need it for a bus or taxi ride etc.

They ask to see your passport at the bank but they are definitely cheaper.

For example: https://kasikornbank.com/en/Rate/Pag...-Exchange.aspx has a better rate than VBCE (https://www.vbce.ca/)
