EUR to THB in August 2026: high, low, average
Updated September 26, 2026
For a European planning a holiday in Thailand, August 2026 looked almost identical to July. The euro averaged 38.27 Thai baht across 21 ECB reference rates, only 0.03% above the July average of 38.259. It started the month at 38.452 and ended at 38.458, the highest fixing of August. The low was 38.124 on August 24.
A round trip in one month
The euro lost ground in the first week, falling from 38.452 to 38.129 by August 7. It then recovered gradually through mid-month, reaching 38.448 on August 20.
On August 21 the euro dropped 0.58%, the largest move of the month, and on August 24 it reached the low of 38.124. The final week brought a steady climb, with gains on each of the last five fixings, up to 38.458 on August 31.
Twelve fixings were up and nine were down, and the month ended almost exactly where it started.

Tips for European travellers to Thailand
Timing matters little in a month like this. The range of 0.88% is small. On a holiday budget, the exchange method makes a much bigger difference than the date.
Bring euros or use a card? Exchange counters in Bangkok and Phuket often give reasonable rates for euro banknotes, and airport counters usually give worse ones. Thai ATMs charge a fixed fee per withdrawal on foreign cards, so fewer, larger withdrawals cost less.
Pay in baht. When a shop or hotel offers to charge your card in euros, the conversion rate it uses is usually less favourable than your bank's. Choose baht.
Check the rate afterwards. Divide the euro amount on your card statement by the baht you spent and compare it with the fixing for that day. The difference is the margin you paid.
For businesses
Thai exporters of food products, rubber and electronics to Europe receive euros. At the monthly average one baht was worth 0.02613 euros. A stronger euro than last year means more baht per euro of sales.
European companies buying from Thai factories pay slightly more in euros than they would have if the baht had weakened, but August brought almost no change against July.
Budgeting for the next trip
If you are planning a trip for later in the year, the August average of 38.27 is a reasonable figure for a first budget. Leave some room: the euro moved by 0.88% within this quiet month, and a busier month can move several times more. Prepaying hotels in baht locks the rate for that part of the trip.
