Tipping · 🇹🇭

Tipping in Thailand

Customary: 5%–10%. Not expected. Round up, or leave a little at sit-down restaurants.

At restaurants

What is customary: Not expected — welcome, but nobody is counting

Worked example

On a ฿2,000.00 bill, 5% is ฿100.00, so you would hand over ฿2,100.00.

Tour guides

On a “free” walking tour, the tip is the fare: about ฿300.00 per person.

On a paid tour, 10% of the price on top.

Appreciated rather than expected. On a day trip the driver is tipped separately and less.

The money

Thailand uses the Thai Baht (THB). Today 1 GBP is 44.9809 THB.
