ESL Careers market context
How this pay compares in Thailand
This listing vs. the local range
฿40,000 / month sits in the middle of the 30k to 45k THB per month our Thailand guide lists for government schools.
Living costs in Bangkok
Roughly 12,000 to 30,000 THB a month for a one-bedroom condo, widening fast the closer you get to a central station. Thailand pays less relative to cost than Vietnam, so most teachers here live well and save little.
Visa and paperwork
Three separate things are involved: a Non-Immigrant B visa, a work permit from Thailand's Ministry of Labour (applied for by your employer), and, for school teaching, permission or a licence from the Teachers' Council of Thailand. A bachelor's degree is the usual baseline for school roles.
Can I teach in Thailand without a TEFL?
Many schools and agencies ask for a TEFL, and some will hire without one, so employer requirements vary. A TEFL is an employer preference, not what the Teachers' Council criteria for temporary teaching permission list (age 20 or over and a degree or qualification, with permission granted to the school for the individual). Licensing and visa rules change, so confirm with your school and the Teachers' Council before you rely on any of this.
