Understanding the cost of sending money to Thailand from Indonesia

The cost of sending money from Thailand to Thailand, is made-up of a combination of fees and exchange rates:

The Mid-Market and Exchange Rates: The mid-market rate determines a mid-price for buying currency. The current mid-market rate from IDR-THB is 0.0022 THB per Rupiah.

  • Finding a provider offering an exchange as close to 0.0022 as possible will ensure more Baht received when transferring.

  • For context, the IDR-THB mid-market rate for the past three months has averaged 0.0022 THB per Rupiah. This includes a high of 0.0023, and low of 0.0021.

  • Wise currently offers the best exchange rate on transfers from Indonesia to Thailand.

For the most part the IDR-THB exchange rate you receive is the biggest factor impacting the cost of sending IDR to Thailand.

Fees: Outside of exchange rates, you may need to pay a fee to send. Wise currently offers the lowest fees on transfers to Thailand from Indonesia, averaging 117,857.07 IDR over the last 6 months. Although this does include large transfers as well, we recommend searching for your exact send amount for an exact fee.

Amount Received: The amount received in Baht is the amount you started with, minus the amount you paid in the exchange and fees.

The better deal you get on exchanging Rupiahs to THB, paired with a low fee, means a higher total amount received in Thailand.
