What do I need to know before moving to Pattaya?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Pattaya, they said...

"Pattaya is a popular tourist destination in Thailand, so it is important to be aware of the local culture and customs. It is also important to research the cost of living in Pattaya, as it can be quite expensive. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the language barrier, as English is not widely spoken in Pattaya. It is also important to be aware of the climate in Pattaya, as it can be quite hot and humid. Finally, it is important to research the local healthcare system and ensure that you have adequate health insurance coverage," said a member in Pattaya, Thailand.

"Get advice from expats who are living in the country. Some houses are in remote places far from a school, from a supermarket. Check the services provided by the compund (a good maintenance service is important)," remarked another expat who made the move to Pattaya, Thailand.
