How can I get paid from abroad in Phuket?

A global payment account gives you account details in currencies such as USD, EUR or GBP, so clients and marketplaces can pay you locally in their country. You then convert to THB and withdraw.

What does it cost to convert to THB?

Costs are the conversion margin plus any withdrawal fee to your local bank in Thailand. Compare both, as they vary a lot between providers.

Who regulates international bank accounts & e-wallets in Phuket?

Providers serving customers in Thailand fall under Bank of Thailand (BOT). Payment service providers in Thailand must be licensed by the BOT under the Payment Systems Act. Confirm licensed status before holding funds with a provider.

Who uses global payment accounts in Phuket?

Freelancers, remote workers, online sellers and small exporters in Phuket use them to receive foreign income without opening bank accounts abroad.
