Forum threads put international-school teacher pay in Thailand anywhere from 60,000 to 250,000 baht a month. The Baht records only what each school states on its own careers page, next to the school's published fees, so the two can be read together. Most schools say "competitive" and list a package instead of a number; that package is recorded as the school describes it, nothing inferred.
Schools that state a figure
| School | City | Role | Stated pay (THB a month) | Annual tuition at Year 7 | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bromsgrove International School Thailand | Bangkok | Junior IT Support Officer (part-time, support staff) | 20,000 THB to 25,000 THB | school site, 30 October 2026 | |
| NIVA American International School | Bangkok | Secondary Science and Social Studies teacher | 60,000 THB | 284,000 THB | school site, 2 November 2026 |
| Thai-Chinese International School | Samut Prakan | Classroom teacher (international hire, salary grid by experience and qualification) | 95,000 THB to 135,000 THB | 489,439 THB | school site, 5 November 2026 |
What the packages include
"Yes" means the school's own page lists that item; a blank means it does not mention it, not that it is absent. Benefits named by the most schools: professional development (3), medical insurance (3), staff dormitory (2), staff shuttle bus (2), relaxation massage service (2), free staff meal once a week (2).
Reading the numbers
A stated salary is before Thai income tax, which runs from 5% to 35% in bands, and usually excludes the housing and flight allowances that the package tables above record separately. For the one-year extension of stay after a work permit, Immigration applies a minimum monthly income by nationality; most Western nationalities need 50,000 baht a month, and the full table is on the working-in-Thailand page. Teachers also need a licence or a temporary waiver from the Teachers' Council of Thailand, which the school normally arranges.
