Salaries 2023

Salary Report 2023

Salary ranges reflect our view of monthly base salaries being paid by modern software companies in Bangkok, Thailand, or who are located in SE Asia and willing to hire candidates on a fully remote basis.
Levels are similar for both Thai and foreign nationals; ranges are indicative for candidates with good English and technical skills to be able to work effectively in an international environment; salaries are typically 25-40%+ lower for candidates without these skills
Experience indicates total years of relevant tech IT experience; years with a specific skill(s) are often less.
Candidate skill levels vary between individuals (with similar years of experience), leading to significant variations in salaries offered.
These ranges indicate salaries currently being paid. However, some candidates may require a significant increase to justify making a move.
Most salaries are the same as 2022 as economic uncertainty has decreased upwards pressure on rates, but demand for high-caliber staff remains strong.
