What are the problems with tipping in Thailand?

Thailand is a tipping country. Many service industries have low basic wages, and their main income depends on tips. Therefore, many waiters have good service and good attitude. Moreover, the price of consumption itself is cheap. Let you tip because this service completely exceeds the price of the goods. The usual tip in Thailand is 20 baht.

The tip of the hotel room attendant is 20 baht. Because there is only one bottle of cold boiled water in the hotel room, if you want hot water, you should tip the waiter 20 baht. If you don't give it, he will stand still and ask you for it.

2, restaurant tips: small restaurants generally do not need to give. Bigger restaurants should also be treated differently. Some restaurants don't need tipping, because their prices already include tipping. Other prices do not include tips, but they can be given appropriately. Of course, if you think the service is really thoughtful, it is not too much to give more.

5. High-consumption areas such as bars: The higher the consumption level, the more tips you give. If you buy a bottle of 120 baht beer and a bottle of 60 baht soda, you should tip 20 baht. If you buy a dozen and a half at a time, you have to pay 50 to 100 baht, and the waiter will be very hardworking; If you want ice cubes, there are 50 baht per barrel in Thailand, and you can keep the change of 100 baht.
