List of living costs: How much does a long-term stay in Thailand cost?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You want to spend a longer time in Thailand as a long-term tourist? Or even emigrate to Thailand entirely? First of all, you should find out about the cost of living in Thailand. Life in Thailand is of course much cheaper than in Germany, but nothing is free in Thailand either. Rent, telephone, internet, electricity, costs for food and drink… a lot comes together in Thailand. And you certainly don’t just want to spend time in your apartment, you also want to enjoy life.<\/p>\n

The best thing to do is to make a list of all the expenses you currently have in Germany. And then you have to do a little research and calculate how high these cost items are in Thailand.<\/p>\n

Of course it also depends on where you want to spend your time in Thailand. For example, the cost of living on Ko Samui is a little bit higher than in Pattaya. The same applies in Thailand: life on an island is more expensive than on the mainland. And the more a place or city is developed for tourism, the more you have to plan for rent, food and drink, for example.<\/p>\n

For example, a sub at Subways in Chaweng on Ko Samui is around 15 percent more expensive than in Bangkok. Ok, we are talking about cent amounts here, but the bottom line is that the mass also makes up a considerable amount if you extrapolate these price differences to the month or an entire year.<\/p>\n
