Converting from Lao Kip (LAK) to Thai Baht (THB)

What is Lao Kip (LAK)

Lao Kip (LAK) is the official currency of Laos, a landlocked country in Southeast Asia. Launched in 1952, the Kip is subdivided into 100 att. The name "Kip" is derived from a traditional unit of measurement used by the Lao people. The currency symbol for Lao Kip is ₭, and its ISO code is LAK.

The Kip is used primarily within Laos and is essential for daily transactions, including purchasing goods and services, conducting business, and traveling within the country. However, due to Laos' geographical proximity to Thailand and the economic relationships between the two countries, Thai Baht is sometimes accepted in tourist areas. Despite this, using Lao Kip is crucial for transactions to ensure you receive the best value for your money, as exchange rates can vary significantly.

In recent years, the Lao government has worked to stabilize the Kip's value by limiting inflation and encouraging economic growth. However, like many emerging market currencies, the Kip is subject to fluctuations based on economic conditions, trade relations, and demand for foreign currencies.

The Thai Baht is a stable and widely accepted currency, both nationally and internationally. Its stability has made the Baht a favorite for tourists and businesses operating in Thailand.
