How to type the thai baht symbol on Windows, Mac, Word, Excel, Google Docs, and more

Windows

No standard Windows Alt code exists for ฿. A few Unicode‑aware apps on Windows accept 0E3F then Alt+X in Word (numeric keypad required), but it isn’t universal and won’t work everywhere. Treat that as a convenience, not a guarantee.

Reliable Windows methods:

  • Emoji & symbols panel: press Win+. (period), open Symbols → Currency, then click ฿. You can also search “baht”.
  • Character Map: press Start, type “Character Map,” open it → check “Advanced view” → search “baht” → select ฿ → Copy → Paste.
  • Copy from the button above.

Alt codes use the numeric keypad. Laptops without one need an external numpad or another method.

Mac (macOS)

There’s no Option-key shortcut for ฿. Use Character Viewer: press Ctrl+Cmd+Space → search “baht” or open the Currency category → double‑click ฿ to insert. You can also copy from the button above.

If you type it often, set a text replacement (System Settings → Keyboard → Text Replacements), for example replace “;baht” with “฿”.

Microsoft Word (Windows/macOS)

Fastest in Word: type 0E3F then press Alt+X. Word converts the hex code to ฿. This works in Outlook and OneNote too.

Menu path: Insert → Symbol → More Symbols → find ฿ (you can sort by Unicode name or search “baht”) → Insert. You can also add an AutoCorrect entry (File → Options → Proofing → AutoCorrect Options…) to replace a trigger like “;baht” with “฿”.

Note: Don’t try “0E3F then Alt+X in Word” — Alt codes take decimal numbers only. The hex method in Word is type code, then Alt+X.

Excel

Use Insert → Symbol or a formula:

  • Insert → Symbol → search “baht” → Insert.
  • Formula: =UNICHAR(3647) returns ฿. Format the cell as General/Text. Copy and paste the result where needed.

Word’s Alt+X conversion does not work in Excel. Paste or use Insert → Symbol instead.

PowerPoint

Insert → Symbol → search “baht” → Insert. Or paste from the copy button. Alt+X does not work in PowerPoint.

Google Docs and Google Sheets

Docs: Insert → Special characters → search “baht” → click ฿.

Sheets: there’s no Special characters dialog. Use =UNICHAR(3647), or paste. Press F2 to enter cell edit mode before inserting with any OS picker.

iPhone and Android

The quickest path is paste: copy ฿ from the button, then paste into your app. On iOS, you can add a text replacement (Settings → General → Keyboard → Text Replacement) like “;baht” → “฿”.

Availability on long‑press currency keys varies by keyboard and locale. If yours doesn’t show ฿, add a Thai keyboard (iOS or Android language settings) or keep a text snippet you can paste.

Chromebook (and Linux)

Use Unicode input: press Ctrl+Shift+U, type 0e3f, then press Space or Enter. You’ll see an underlined “u” before you type the code. If a web field blocks it, paste instead.

Notion, Slack, Discord, Canva

These apps don’t have a dedicated shortcut for ฿. Paste it, or use your OS picker (Win+.

panel, macOS Character Viewer, mobile text replacements). Slack’s :shortcodes: are for emoji only, so use paste for this currency sign.

HTML and CSS

HTML: use ฿ (decimal) or ฿ (hex). Both are valid.

For CSS content strings, use "\0E3F". Don’t write 0E3F then Alt+X in Word; Alt codes are decimal and Windows has no standard one for ฿.

Frequently asked questions

Why is there no standard Windows Alt code for ฿?

Classic Alt codes with a leading zero use the Windows‑1252 table, which only covers Western symbols. Thai script, including ฿, isn’t in that table. Some Unicode‑aware apps accept 0E3F then Alt+X in Word, but it’s not guaranteed system‑wide.

Use Word’s Alt+X (0E3F then Alt+X), the Win+. panel, Character Map, or paste.

It shows as a box or question mark, how do I fix the font?

That means the current font lacks Thai support. Switch to a font that includes Thai, such as Noto Sans Thai (Google), Leelawadee UI (Windows), or Thonburi/Sarabun (macOS).

Then re‑insert or paste ฿. In browsers, most default UI fonts render ฿ correctly.

Can I use ฿ in usernames, passwords, or file names?

Passwords and file names usually accept Unicode, so ฿ works. Usernames often restrict characters to A–Z, 0–9, underscores, or hyphens; bios and display names are more flexible. If a field rejects ฿, use the ISO code “THB” instead.

Is ฿ the Bitcoin symbol?

No. Bitcoin uses ₿ (U+20BF). The thai baht symbol is ฿ (U+0E3F). If you need Bitcoin specifically, paste ₿; don’t substitute ฿.

How do I type ฿ in LaTeX?

There’s no built‑in LaTeX command for ฿. Use XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX with a Thai‑capable font and insert the Unicode character directly, or write the currency code “THB.”

Decimal vs hex: which number goes where?

Alt codes (when available) use decimal. Word’s Alt+X, Chromebook/Linux Ctrl+Shift+U, and CSS escapes use hexadecimal.

For ฿: decimal 3647, hex 0E3F. So type 0E3F then Alt+X in Word; use ฿ or ฿ in HTML.
