How to Write an Amount in Thai Words on Cheques and Contracts

Write the amount in words correctly, without missing เอ็ด or ยี่.

Cheques, receipts and contracts often ask for the amount in both numbers and words. If they do not match, problems can follow later, and a bank may refuse a cheque. Check with your bank if unsure.

How to end the amount

A whole baht amount ends with ถ้วน. 1,250 baht is หนึ่งพันสองร้อยห้าสิบบาทถ้วน. With satang, read them at the end, so 150.75 baht is หนึ่งร้อยห้าสิบบาทเจ็ดสิบห้าสตางค์, with no ถ้วน.
