Welcome to Thai Brides. On this site you’ll find loads of useful information about visiting and living in Thailand as well as meeting and dating Thai girls.

If you want to find a Thai bride then I highly recommend Thai Cupid. I averaged one date a week while I was using it when I lived in Bangkok. Sign up and check them out!

Hi everybody,
 
 
I just wanted to know how many of you have a plan to move to Thailand. As I understand it you can normally get a Thai retirement visa from the age of 50, so that means I have roughly 4 years and 9 months before I can GTFO out of Farangland and go live in Thailand.
 
 
So why do I want to retire to Thailand. Well I can think of some advantages over Farangland:

  • Warmer weather
  • Better dating opportunities
  • Great food
  • More relaxed
  • Less need to get all steamed up about immigration and other issues affecting Farangland
  • Lower cost of living

 
 
I have actually lived in Thailand before (for 6 months in 2013) so I kind of know what I’m letting myself in for. If any of you guys are thinking of retiring there, would you test it out before making a longer term commitment to Thailand?
