A basic work wardrobe here (not including suit) will cost you about 5000- 6000 baht.

Pants in the 700-1000 baht range.
Shirts in the 250-500 baht range.
Decent shoes about 1000 baht.
Ties anywhere from 50-300 baht each.

You will also need to deal with your housing issues (it won't be provided), food, transportation, printing off your resume a bunch of times and time in an internet cafe. There are phone costs (if you want to find work they need to be able to contact you.)

Bottom line: you will need about US$2-3000 to get settled and get to work, do your visa runs and hold you through the lean times until you get some contacts, networking and semi-steady work.

Might be better to stay in China if the bank roll isn't big enough.



Thank you for this tttom!! Smile This post was very informative, as have been all your post. You've been very helpful and given me a lot of useful information.

I hope that didn't sound sarcastic at all, it if did, trust me it's not, that's genuine thanks and appreciation.
