Start with the national median (฿1,840,000), then pick the metro where you would actually work. Observed city rows below are stronger than a pay-index guess. If your city is missing, stay on this page for the country figure and check the Thailand hub for other careers.
Convert gross through the salary calculator before comparing two cities — tax and rent often reorder a cash ranking. Figures are estimates for research, not employer bands.
National band vs top metro
National sketch: ฿1,343,200 (10th) → ฿1,840,000 (median) → ฿2,447,200 (90th). Bangkok’s observed median is ฿1,290,000, with a local band about ฿913,000–฿1,820,000. If an offer is “at the Thailand median” but the job is in Bangkok, you may still be under local market.
