Research & Editorial

The Retire in Pattaya Editorial Team

  • Every money, health, visa and legal page is checked against primary or official sources before publishing
  • Volatile figures carry a visible 'last reviewed' date and a source link
  • We publish our research method openly (see How We Research)

We’re building the most honest English-language resource for retiring in Pattaya. That means telling the whole story — the sunshine and the downsides — and being transparent about how we know what we know.

Every guide is researched against primary and official sources, given a visible “last reviewed” date, and written to send you to a qualified professional for the decisions that matter. Where the figures change — visas, tax, insurance — we say so plainly rather than pretend they’re fixed.

We’re adding named specialist contributors and reviewers — for healthcare, insurance and Thai legal matters — and will credit them here as they join. Until then, the team takes collective responsibility for everything we publish. You can read exactly how we work on our How We Research page.
